Tencent Reveals Trailer for Zombie Mobile Game
As most gamers know, Chinese video game companies (well, many companies, actually) take more than a few liberties when it comes to creating “new” games/products. I could get into how it’s part of the Communist system regarding the black market and blah, blah, blah, but unlike some knock-offs, this upcoming game by Chinese developer Tencent looks pretty good.
Granted, this is all based on a trailer for the game (代号：生机, which roughly translates to “Code: Live”), which is an open world survival title with zombies, a first for Tencent. There’s also online co-op gameplay, and from the look of the trailer, possible Tower Defense mechanics.
As mentioned, the trailer looks pretty good, even if it unabashedly borrows themes from Western titles such as Days Gone, Metal Gear Survive, Left 4 Dead, and State of Decay.
It’s not known if this game will show up on the other side of the pond, or even when the release date will be. But, at least it looks pretty cool.
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.
