There’s more futility on the science fiction horizon as Focus Home and Deck13 have announced a partnership on a new dystopic future. It’s an action RPG IP they’re working on but they won’t surrender a name yet.
They boast of ”innovative combat mechanics and an original character progression system” that’s based off modular upgrades, and we’ll earn them through ”tight, visceral” action. A single teasing image has been released.
”After our recent major project, the team at Deck13 is eager to take on the next challenge. We have learned a lot and want to deliver an even greater experience to core gamers this time,” said CEO and Creative Director Jan Klose of Deck13.
The German studio’s most recent work includes action RPG Lords of the Fallen, which was co-developed by CI Games. They also made adventure series Jack Keane.
This new unannounced IP is in development for PC, Xbox One and PS4 - it will release in 2017.
