Chernobylite
A new trailer for Chernobylite is here to give us another creepy look at how Chernobylite will tackle the Chernobyl nuclear catastrophe
Last year, you may remember, we had word of a new horror game called Chernobylite with little else to go on. Okay, that may be a bit off as we knew it was a horror game coming from The Farm 51 and would also be covering a new look at the Chernobyl nuclear catastrophe from real-world history. That was something that shook people to their cores and caused a lot of stir with other forms of media. Now it looks like we are going back and finally have something to see for Chernobylite as we have another official announcement for the game along with video. Just as the best of announcements should be.
It is hard to tell if any of this is actual footage from Chernobylite but it does seem to tell the main theme and tone the game will have. Given the Unreal Engine, we could be seeing gameplay in some form here. Seeing as the team is using real world scans of the location to bring Chernobylite to life, it is quite possible this is all live footage. We will need to wait and see for now, but at least we know that the game is officially coming and has something more than text and a logo to look at. You can see the video and gameplay features down below and then wait with us for something a bit more solid to go on.
Chernobylite — Announcement
April 26th, 1:23 AM Ukrainian time, 1986. The day on which the Chernobyl nuclear catastrophe happened and the lives of 350,000 people changed forever. At the time you were just a young, passionate, naive physicist working at the facility. And like many, you’ve lost what was most dear to you — a loved one. 30 years later you’re still struggling with the demons of the past. So, to finally put them to rest, you return to what’s now called the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone.
Chernobylite is a science-fiction survival horror experience from the team behind the critically acclaimed Get Even. The game mixes the free exploration of its disturbing world with challenging combat, unique crafting, and non-linear storytelling. This exceptional title will constantly challenge you to:
