Well, that’s a huge Ogre, isn’t it?
Extinction takes the concept of fighting huge enemies – thin Attack on Titan or Shadow of the Colossus – and plays with it in a fantastic way. Today we have a new video showcasing how the game requires different approaches:
As the official press release describes it:
Choices matter in Extinction. It’s up to our hero, Avil, to use his powers to transport civilians to safety while also slaying his foes and completing other necessary objectives. Ground and air minions – known as Jackals and Vultures – each have to be dealt with in their own ways, but it’s the armoured Ravenii that require extra-special attention. One wrong move could mean death for the townspeople or destruction for the cities.
The video depicts how different skill the hero possesses throughout the game influence the strategy undertaken in various combat situations. It all looks quite promising.
Extinction will be available on PlayStation4, Xbox One, and PC in Spring of 2018.
