Look to the Sky! Airdrops Confirmed for ‘H1Z1’
It’s official, survival games and random airdrops go hand-in-hand. Rust, DayZ and 7 Days to Die all have them, and now it’s been confirmed that H1Z1 will too. If you aren’t familiar with any of these games, they’re all of the variety that drops players in a hostile environment, usually with little to no gear and surrounded by things that are looking for something to kill.
H1Z1 is Sony’s attempt to take advantage of the recent success this subgenre has seen over the last few years, and while it looks rough now, so does its competition.
Because the worlds in these games tend to be on the volatile side, airdrops are the a way of making life a bit easier for players through the random dropping of precious resources from the sky. The only problem is that, more often than not, these drops only serve as a trap for new players. These unsuspecting noobs see the drop and pursue it, only to get gunned down by other players.
Sony also shared a highlight video from a recent “Devathon” stream. You can check that out below.
While you wait for Alien: Romulus, the folks over at Devilworks have cooked up their own slice of “mockbuster” fun with Alien Hunt, and we’re debuting the trailer here on BD this morning.
This brand-new sci-fi horror from director Aaron Mirtes (The Bigfoot Trap, Painted in Blood) is set for its US premiere on May 14, and you can find it on digital thanks to Devilworks.
You can exclusively watch the official trailer for Alien Hunt below, which looks to combine elements of Alien and Predator. This particular “mockbuster” has very little interest in hiding its inspirations, with the alien designs plucked straight out of H.R. Giger’s beautiful brain. Hey, if you’re going to pull from other movies, might as well take from the all-time greats!
In Alien Hunt, “On a hunting trip in the wilderness, a group of siblings discovers an abandoned military outpost on their land, but is it what it seems?
“Their trip takes a sinister turn when they find themselves facing off against a relentless army of extra-terrestrial beings. Suddenly, the hunters become the hunted.
“The formidable squad of alien soldiers will stop at nothing to wipe out the enemy and in an all-out, brutal battle for survival, it’s kill or be killed in Alien Hunt.”
Barron Boedecker (Escape Pod, The Bigfoot Trap), Brent Bentley (The Perfect In-Laws, Haunt Season), Deiondre Teagle (The Visitor, Painted in Blood, Death Ranch), Chelsey Fuller (The Bigfoot Trap, The Silent Natural), Jesse Santoyo (A Nashville Country Christmas, Potter’s Ground), and Adam Pietripaoli (The Bigfoot Trap, The OctoGames) star.
