Project Wight is Now Darkborn. New Gameplay Footage.
The Outsiders team reminded us of their FPP adventure game, in which we will control a monster fighting for survival in the Viking age. This ambitious game, so far known as Project Wight, has been given a new name - Darkborn.
The Outsiders is a small studio led by David Goldfarb, who previously worked on Battlefield: Bad Company 2 or Killzone 2. The team is currently working on their latest work. The first-person action adventure game known so far as Project Wight has been given a new name. From now on it is known as Darkborn. There is also a 15-minute-long gameplay footage, which you can see below.
Game is described as a classic story of revenge. The story revolves around a mysterious creature whose loved ones were murdered by people. In an interview for IGN, Goldfarb said he wanted the game to reverse the standard roles and enable you to play as the monster.
David Goldfarb also admitted that he was inspired by games such as Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor and Shadow of the Colossus and the deliberations over opponents encountered during the game. "What if the Orcs [in Shadow of Mordor] were the good guys?? Or "what kind of lives did those great beasts [in Shadow of the Colossus] have before you came to murder them?" - Goldfarb said during the interview.
Darkborn emphasizes sneaking as well as open combat. At this point in time, it is not known when the game will appear on the market. It will launch on PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
