One of the neatest things about this generation has been how some releases have seemingly come out of nowhere. Take this year\u2019s Clair Obscur: Expedition 33<\/a>, for example \u2013 it\u2019s a brand-new title from a fresh team and has taken the industry by storm.<\/p>\n

Credit to Project Renegade: The Becoming<\/a>, then \u2013 this Resident Evil<\/a>-inspired single player narrative action game could be one to watch.<\/p>\n

The title\u2019s being developed by Chinese studio Invercity Game Works, a team we can\u2019t find any additional information on.<\/p>\n

But it looks really cool \u2013 it\u2019s a traditional third-person shooter with gun-fu elements, so instead of just shooting zombies like in most games, you\u2019ll be juggling with your ammunition and doing acrobatics.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s how the official blurb introduces the plot:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cIn 1995, humanity\u2019s last hope \u2013 Project Retrograde \u2013 collapsed as the underground world was shattered by the ancient parasite L.U.C.A. Play as a bounty hunter symbiotic with parasite, using its dangerous power to save the world, even if it consumes you.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

As alluded to above, you\u2019ll be augmented with parasitic skills, which you\u2019ll be able to upgrade throughout the campaign to enhance your combat prowess.<\/p>\n

\u201cDelve into the post-apocalyptic realm filled with retro technology. Manipulate the LUX system to alter underground weather, or climb towers to reach unknown regions and uncover the truth buried for years.\u201d<\/p>\n

There\u2019s no release date just yet, but the title is planned for PS5 at launch, and looks like it could be pushing Sony\u2019s system hard.<\/p>\n

While it\u2019s clearly been heavily inspired by Resident Evil, this looks like yet another Chinese title that\u2019s propelled by some pretty remarkable production values. There\u2019s a lot of them emerging at the moment, isn\u2019t there?<\/p>\n
