[Trailer] ‘Max Payne’ Meets Vampires in Third-Person Shooter Title ‘El Paso, Elsewhere’

Published

on

Yeah, Bullet Time in games is one of those “been there, done that” fads from yesteryear, but damn it if it still isn’t fun. That must be what Strange Scaffold is thinking with El Paso, Elsewhere. Announced during the Guerrilla Collective event, the third-person shooter combines Max Payne with vampires in a motel (seriously).

Described as a “supernatural neo-noir third-person shooter”, you assume the role of a man on a mission to destroy the woman you loved, who just so happens to be a vampire. To do so, you’ll have to traverse the 46 floors of a haunted motel that’s crawling with werewolves, fallen angels, and other damned creatures. Oh, and the motel has a penchant for shape-shifting.

You’ll be doing quite a bit of slo-mo diving to avoid enemy projectiles while dishing out your own in a “love letter to action classics”. Your arsenal includes things like stakes, shotguns, and molotov cocktails that glow with holy blue flame.

El Paso, Elsewhere is aiming for a 2022 release on Steam.

Come Face to Face With the Zombie Menace in the Story Trailer for ‘Zombie Army VR’ [Watch]

While there’s no definitive release date just yet, Rebellion is teasing fans with a new story trailer for the upcoming Zombie Army VR, which is expected to arrive later this year. The new trailer gives fans and prospective players a glimpse at the Zombie Army VR story campaign, which as you might have guessed, involves occult magic, waves of zombies, and plenty of headshots.

The game’s campaign takes place alongside the events of the Zombie Army series, and sees you take to the field as one of the Deadhunters, an elite squad that is hunting down zombie war criminals. You must fight your way through undead hordes near the bombed-out city of Nuremberg to help Captain Hermann Wolff, the Deadhunter’s legendary leader, find his scattered family and fight to free Europe from the zombie apocalypse.

As you navigate the full-length story campaign either alone or with an ally, you’ll have access to an arsenal of authentic World War II weaponry, including sniper rifles, submachine guns, pistols and more. As one would expect, VR brings a new level of immersion to the action of the Zombie Army series, which will require you to “get to grips” with using your hands to aim your rifle, dual-wield your side arm with a submachine gun, master reloading drills, and tossing grenades.

Zombie Army VR is currently in development for the PlayStation VR2, Meta Quest 2, 3, Pro, Oculus Rift and PC headsets via Steam.
