Sort of publisher-ish New Blood have announced they will be unveiling a new title, AMID EVIL, by Anz Indie developer, Indefatigable, at PAX Australia, being held in Melbourne, Oct 27 – 29. Fans can get hands on all weekend in the PAX Rising booth.
AMID EVIL, a Heretic-styled FPS, will be rolled out to media as a sneak peek at the Arcade Open Day, and then on the show floor of PAX Aus for everyone to come and get hands-on.
The producers of DUSK and the creators of Return of the Triad invite you to embark on an epic new FPS adventure:
· SEVEN distinct episodes each featuring a completely different setting and enemies
· LUDICROUS magical weaponry that can be overcharged with the souls of the dead
· BRUTAL and adaptive enemy AI that will hunt you down over land, sea and air
· SPRAWLING non-linear levels filled with secrets and ancient lore
· MULTITUDES of in-game options and cheat codes for a truly “Golden PC Age” experience
· BUILT in Unreal Engine 4 for cutting edge visuals (even if they are a bit retro)
· OPTIMIZED to run on a toaster (a pretty nice toaster)
· EPIC original and dynamic soundtrack composed by Andrew Hulshult.
This is really cool news. The game looks to be a spiritual sequel to Heretic and Hexen, something that fans have wanted for a long time. This is one to keep an eye on.
