Introduction: Dark Void is a new sci-fi action-adventure game that combines an adrenaline-fuelled blend of aerial and on-foot combat set in a parallel universe called “The Void”. Taking the role of Will, a pilot dropped in the Bermuda Triangle when his plane went down, you find yourself trapped in the Void and swept into a desperate struggle for survival at the head of a group called The Survivors. Caught in the Void, these resistance fighters are battling to hold off a mysterious alien race that plans to threaten Earth. Dark Void’s unique combination of in-air and on-ground combat creates a thrilling new gameplay dynamic to the third-person shooter experience. Taking 3D action to a whole new level, Dark Void’s vertical combat system allows players to dangle from thousand foot drops as they take cover and drop enemies from above and below, bringing a whole new sense of vulnerability and thrill to the player. Defying gravity in vertical combat is only half the battle as, over time, Will is upgraded to a powerful rocket pack which allows for fierce in-air combat as gamers are able to fly through the void at unparalleled speeds shooting down anything that gets in their path. Blasting away at massive bosses has never been this much fun as Dark Void offers a unique grip system made up of a variety of grip-based mini-games including skyjacking UFOs mid-flight. |
Features: Sci-Fi action/adventure combines aerial and on-foot combat for a totally unique third-person shooter experience. Will's jetpack delivers total freedom of movement allowing players to race against UFOs in high-speed chases and rain death from above onto unsuspecting otherworldly foes. Speed and scale unmatched by any other action title: send Will zipping through tight corridors and then out into immense canyons and futuristic geoscapes. Gravity-defying vertical combat system, where moving up is the only way to bring your enemies down. Seamless transition between jetpack flight, ship-to-ship dog fighting and third-person shoot-em-up action all exists within the same level - not broken up into different "areas". Unique grip system that allows the players to scale walls by jumping from surface to surface and hijack UFO's while in mid-air. Huge bosses that require fast reflexes and aerial barnstorming manoeuvres to defeat. Developed by Airtight Studios, a new group featuring team members from the Crimson Skies series of video games. |
