A new gameplay trailer and screenshots debuted today for Underworld Ascendant, the first major title from OtherSide Entertainment, an independent game developer founded by industry legends Paul Neurath (Ultima Underworld, Thief) and Warren Spector (Deus Ex, Epic Mickey). The trailer also revealed that the long-awaited return to the Stygian Abyss will launch in September this year:
Published by 505 Games, Underworld Ascendant will return players to a memorable and breathtaking fantasy realm rife with danger and full of intrigue. The game encourages and rewards player experimentation, boasting an environment that reacts dynamically to player choices and a wide range of items, skills and abilities that affords players meaningful gameplay decisions. OtherSide is innovating upon the player-authored gameplay of the original series in bold new ways to bring the ‘immersive sim’ genre forward in this action-RPG.
Underworld Ascendant will be playable for all attendees of E3 at the Alienware booth #647 from June 12-14. Qualified press can get their hands on Underworld Ascendant in private behind-closed-doors demos at E3, as well as the opportunity to talk to Neurath, Spector or the game’s director/writer, Joe Fielder (BioShock Infinite).
Underworld Ascendant will be published on Steam for PC in September 2018. Players can Wishlist the game now at: http://store.steampowered.com/app/692840.
