“I can’t fairly get what Weird West is as a game, however I bloody love the aesthetic,” our Nate said final month. He’d simply seen a notE3 trailer which had loads of temper however not a lot of the game. It’s an action-RPG with some immersive sim-ish bits, yeah? From some people previously of Dishonored and Prey devs Arkane? I’m nonetheless not fairly positive concerning the form of the game however a brand new trailer from Devolver Digital’s stream tonight exhibits greater than I’d seen earlier than.
“Weird West is designed in a way that accommodates many playstyles and many playthroughs,” WolfEye Studios co-founder Raphael Colantonio explains. “Whether you like combat or trickery or stealth or a mix of all of that, you’ll enjoy experimenting with the tools the game offers in a system-rich and physically-simulated world.”
Colantonio was previously president and artistic director at Arkane, and he co-founded WolfEye with former Arkane government producer Julien Roby. So, y’know, they do like immersive sims. And they are saying this action-RPG is partially one?
The video exhibits bits together with sneaking with seen stealth cones, water placing you out in the event you’re on hearth, and lasting penalties to actions like stealing from or killing pleasant NPCs. But I don’t suppose it’s going for Divinity: Original Sin ranges of immersive sim-y roleplaying? Still not fairly positive what it’s. Curious to see.
Weird West is coming to Steam… in some unspecified time in the future.
