Escape From Naraka
A new first-person survival platformer, Escape From Naraka, is announced with us running to try to Escape From Naraka and its mythology
Get those virtual running shoes on, as we have another platformer in a first-person view coming at us with Escape From Naraka having its announcement here. This would be the latest title from XeloGames and Headup heading to the PC in Q3 of this year that looks to take us to some mystical lands while we run to survive it all. All forms of Balinese legends and mythologies will be abound in Escape From Naraka as we try to master the speed and running of the world while trying to dodge all of the dangers it might possess. That and have some cool magical effects and abilities to help us fare much better than an average Joe out there. These are all power fantasies many of us have while sitting behind our glowing screens, so that is always nice to have mixed in.
While the basics for Escape From Naraka might not be too eye-catching or groundbreaking for a video game, as it has been done many times over already, there is a nice little element that will help it stand out a bit. That would be the fact that the team has used some 3D scanning tech to capture this world and build upon places that exist in the real world as of right now. Placing Escape From Naraka in the ranks of games that will truly let you run and explore areas of the world that you might not be able to make it to in real life and experience them in a fantastical way. If they could figure out how to give us superpowers in the real world, that would be the real game-changer, but adding this little touch into an industry that does not always head to these places is always nice. Have a look and see what we are talking about in the announcement trailer just below.
