Square Enix has dropped a bunch of latest details about it’s frankly absurd-looking live-action/game hybrid, The Quiet Man, together with a launch date that’s surprisingly shut.
The game will launch on Steam on November 01, with the funds price ticket of £14.99 ($14.99 for those who’re within the US, as a result of trade charges don’t exist any extra).
The brief blurb supplied within the press launch describes the game as, cease me for those who’ve heard this one earlier than, “an immersive story-driven cinematic action experience” with a narrative that unravels over a single night time, and is designed to be accomplished in a single sitting. From this, it’s secure to imagine that the general playtime can’t be greater than three to 4 hours.
Players will step into the footwear of Dane, as he fights his solution to uncover the motives behind the kidnapping of songstress Lala (no relation to the Teletubby), by a mysterious masked man. From the glimpses of gameplay we now have gotten to date, this seems like it can largely take the type of third-person beat ’em up fight combined in with quite cheap-looking FMV story sequences.
Those who buy on Steam from November 1 to 15 will obtain a 10% low cost and a set of seven desktop and cell wallpapers.
As engaging as that is, it’s not going to a lot to assuage the considerations of many followers, who’ve been perplexed by the game since its out-of-left-field reveal at E3 earlier this 12 months. The Quiet Man has been developed by Human Head Studios, who’re greatest identified for creating the unique Prey, however haven’t labored on a lot of word since.
In some ways, The Quiet Man most intently resembles one other oddball Square title The Bouncer. The Bouncer was additionally a cinematic beat ’em up, which was identified for its spectacular graphics, brief working time, and laughable makes an attempt at telling a ‘street-smart’ story.
We’ll be holding an in depth eye on this one, with our brows sufficiently furrowed.
