Having seen precisely a million first individual horror games, exploring previous ruins that aren’t the identical gray mansion and/or psychological hospital feels like a blessed aid, so a sudden trailer for Urban Explorer caught my eye regardless of its tragic selection of music. According to its own Steam page, “Urban Explorer is a first person perspective exploration game with parkour mechanics and horror elements. Explore abandoned buildings, top secret facilities and catacombs, as well as places still in use, such as engine rooms, elevator shafts and abandoned building floors.” Check out the trailer under.
It seems budgety and a little bit of a mish-mash, however I can see how its components would work effectively along with the precise meeting. A little bit of stealth, a little bit of Mirror’s Edge parkour enterprise, a touch of unsettling horror that for as soon as isn’t about trudging round in pitch darkness together with your 11p torch till the lady from Ringu inevitably exhibits up and vaguely menaces you. You’re there to take images too, which may very well be good.
Publishers PlayWay S.A. have backed a number of profitable games just lately – House Flipper and Cooking Simulator being essentially the most recognisable – and builders Woodland Games have a number of irons within the hearth over the approaching yr. Urban Explorer might go both approach in fact, however I’d take a punt on saying that is value remembering. It’s due out someday within the impossibly futuristic yr 2020.
