Throwback FPS ‘Nightmare Reaper’ Leaves Early Access March 28 [Trailer]
Blazing Bit Games has been going a little old-school with the new in their retro-inspired FPS looter shooter Nightmare Reaper. Currently in Early Access on Steam, the game is expected to leave Early Access on March 28 with the addition of the third chapter.
The fully-launched Nightmare Reaper will include more weapons, new game modes, lots of loot, and more of the nightmare-ridden storyline.
Speaking of the storyline, Nightmare Reaper puts you in the depths of a nightmare of your own making. In order to find your way out, you’ll have to use an arsenal of powerful weapons to blow away demons, while also improving your abilities along the way.
Inspired by the classic 2.5D first person shooters of the 90s, with elements of modern looter shooters and rogue-lites, the game will have you using gold you find to purchase character upgrades and new abilities via minigames. As well, you’ll be making use of 80 unique weapons that can drop as loot and can contain a mix of over 30 enchantment types.
Topping it all off is a score by Andrew Hulshult, who these days needs no introduction for fans of FPS games.
Nightmare Reaper is currently available on Steam and GOG for $24.99, and will have a launch sale of 15% off from March 28th until April 4th on both platforms.
Physical media fanatics can rejoice when it comes to The Chinese Room and publisher Secret Mode’s upcoming narrative horror game Still Wakes the Deep. Alongside the digital version of the game that’s set to launch on June 18 on PC via Steam, PlayStation 5 and the Xbox Series, PlayStation owners will also be able to snag the physical version of Still Wakes the Deep on the same day.
Described as a welcome update for console players “whose greatest fear is the death of physical media,” the Still Wakes the Deep physical edition will be available from online and retail stores in North America and Europe. No word on if the Xbox Series will be getting the same treatment.
Sadly, there doesn’t appear to be any additional goodies with the physical disc. But, given that this guarantees you’ll have a copy of Still Wakes the Deep that you can pop into your console and play without the need to download it again, that’s a small price to pay.
Still Wakes the Deep takes place in 1975, where disaster has struck the Beira D oil rig off the coast of Scotland. You are one of the oil rig workers on the Beira D rig, fighting for his life through a vicious storm, perilous surroundings, and the dark, freezing North Sea waters. All lines of communication have been severed. All exits are gone. And something has snuck on board, leaving you to not only restore function to the rig, but also deal with the unknowable horror.
And keep an eye out for the upcoming mini documentary on Still Wakes the Deep, which is scheduled to arrive around April 30th.
