I’ve all the time thought Capcom displayed stunning restraint in not simply making a Left 4 Dead rip-off when Valve’s game was tearing up the zombie game scene. It appears to be like like their restraint might have run out, judging by right this moment’s announcement trailer for the “team-based survival horror experience” they’re at the moment calling Project Resistance. The video reveals Velma Dinkley from Scooby Doo and three different common people wandering collectively by a zombie lab, battering and blasting completely different courses of undeadniks unleashed upon them by some method of director. How the precise game performs could also be fairly completely different however, for now, it’s wanting doubtlessly fairly L4D-y.
My thoughts immediately jumped to Left 4 Dead however I suppose it might equally be a Dead By Daylight dealio with a player-controlled bosszomb, or a bit like Half-Life 2’s Zombie Master mod, or one thing fully completely different. All I really feel comfy saying for sure is it has a group of people and a few zombies, they usually struggle.
Project Resistance shall be in Capcom’s sales space on the Tokyo Game Show, which begins on Thursday, so we must always hear extra quickly.
Capcom’s multiplayer Resident Evil spin-offs have typically been fascinating in bizarre methods. 2016’s Umbrella Corps was a third-person cowl shooter pitting groups of mercs towards one another with zombies ambling round largely as background color – until somebody shot your Zombie Jammer masking your presence, through which case they’d come best for you. A bizarre and fascinating factor. 2012’s Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City got here nearer to L4D however naw, was nonetheless its personal (not nice) factor. I stay in hope that Project Resistance is one thing equally unfamiliar. Though hopefully a bit higher.
Whatever it’s, Project Resistance is coming to PC (by way of Steam) in addition to Xbone and PS4.
