El Paso, Elsewhere the supernatural shoot-’em-up from prolific builders Unusual Scaffold, has introduced a September launch date on each PC and Xbox.
The third-person shooter is being directed by Xalavier Nelson Jr, who can be voicing the principle character James Savage and performing a number of rap tracks for the sport’s soundtrack. The announcement of the discharge date got here bundled in with the animated music video Keep Awake, a observe recorded for that album.
Oddly, Unusual Scaffold is normally so eclectic with video games like Area Warlord Organ Buying and selling Simulator and Sunshine Shuffle that this extra conventional shooter really feels extra uncommon than their typical choices. Perhaps it is simply extra proof of the builders’ off-the-wall model.
The sport is a love letter to third-person PS2-era shooters like Max Payne, with Treatment’s basic particularly cited as the sport with probably the most affect on the title. As somebody who has performed each, I can say it feels very comparable in the best way that it performs, notably with the shoot dodging and twin weapons. Workers author Elie Gould bought their arms on it, and, of their El Paso, Elsewhere preview, they mentioned: “Whereas the third-person taking pictures is familiarly enjoyable, an important function must be the sluggish movement dives.”
This could really feel heartening to any Max Payne fan on the market. I do know I am excited to be giving it a go.
Enjoyable moral disclaimer: not solely do I believe Xalavier Nelson Jr is form of a cool dude and we’re mates, however I additionally play Fortnite with him semi-regularly. This is not why I’ve written in regards to the sport, and actually if something I am fairly irritated that he hasn’t but carried me to a single victory. James Daly, who works on sister model Future Video games Present, will get me a win each lunchtime on common, and so if something Nelson Jr’s lack of success makes me much less prone to write about his sport. I simply suppose the sport appears to be like very cool, okay?
