We wanted to create a game and a story that doesn’t take itself too seriously, that has great interaction between the various factions yet offers an exciting and difficult challenge.” Also released today is a new character trailer especially for GamesCom which reveals some of the game’s memorable and unique characters. The trailer once again highlights the shooting and brawling game mechanic revealed last month at GameLab in a superb cinematic way.

Big guy Konstantin is a burly Russian who is always on hand to save Lycus when he goes too far. Alicia on the other hand is a crazy aussie who ends up saving the both of them and the mysterious antagonist at the end is a just a hint at the key feature the game has to offer in multiplayer mode – 4 vs 1 antagonist” “We want to use GamesCom to show the game and the universe we are creating to the gamers first and foremost’ Said Enric “but also to talk about the games special multiplayer features and highlight what makes this game special before we let everyone get a hands on with our closed beta program starting very soon”
