The world met El Paso, Elsewhere during the Guerilla Collective 2 E3 showcase.
The game, dubbed as being a “love letter to action classic Max Payne“, comes from Strange Scaffold.
Strange Scaffold recently released An Airport for Aliens Currently By Dogs.
El Paso, Elsewhere features a fully-fledged neo-noir story campaign. The game is set in a reality-shifting motel that is chock full of monsters. The game will feature a wide arsenal of weaponry, including Molotov cocktails “filled with holy blue flame”.
What’s more, in homage to Max Payne, the series defining “bullet-time” slow-motion dives feature prominently.
An official blurb about El Paso, Elsewhere details;
“El Paso, Elsewhere is a supernatural neo-noir third-person shooter. Hunt werewolves, fallen angels, and other damned creatures in vivid slow motion. Fight your way through a reality-shifting motel, floor by bloody floor. Save the victims of Dracula, lord of the vampires. And destroy the villain you loved – even if it means dying yourself.
As players experience a groundbreaking story about the aftermath of an abusive relationship with the lord of the vampires, they’ll save hostages from a variety of twisted environments, scavenge for ammunition beneath the watchful eye(s) of fallen angels, and discover the human cost of taking a werewolf claw to the chest. Neo-noir never looked so good”.
If any (or all) of that sounds right up your street, be sure to wishlist it now on Steam. El Paso, Elsewhere is currently slated for a release next year. Be sure to check back (or head to Steam) for more updates as and when they are available.
