The Directorate: Novitiate
The announcement for The Directorate: Novitiate is here with a look at just what The Directorate will be handling when the supernatural attacks
Those pesky supernatural serial killers out there just do not know when to leave alone, but that does mean that we have a new title on the way to handle that by the way of The Directorate: Novitiate. This would be the latest action title from Nesting Games that is on the way to the PC that will have us in the mix of another timeline where the underworld has stepped up again and set its sights on doing some craziness out there. As long as you are in the market for the guns, magic, and mayhem that The Directorate: Novitiate is going to offer up on the PC when it is ready. Something that I know most of us out there are truly ready to have a bit more of.
In The Directorate: Novitiate, we are playing as Kana Luna (A.K.A Mercury) in a different version of Los Angeles in 2006. One where that aforementioned supernatural serial killer is on the loose and gearing up for a massive war between the natural and supernatural realms. That is where we need to step in and take control as part of The Directorate to bring the killer to justice as well as stop any others from roaming out and causing more mayhem. All of this is to be done between a mix of gunplay and magic, with some over-the-top action moves we can pull off in the mix. Along with the traditional action-style gameplay that we have in games like this. Have a gander at what is ready to be revealed just a little lower down and then see if it will expand out into a title that will have us all looking for much more.

Does this all look like it will be a high-stakes story or will The Directorate be able to handle it faster than we could have expected? Will these over-the-top kills be something only scripted in scenes or will they be things we can pull off if we are good enough to do so? What will make this killer stand out more than others we have seen in other video games and stories before now? Take a swing and a shot at the comment section below then discuss it all a bit more out there. We will keep an eye on The Directorate: Novitiate as the development continues, so please keep on checking back here to see and hear about all of it as it flows out there. It could be a new take on a genre that is starting to feel a little stagnant after all.
