The Surge is set to be released in 2017 on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. "The game will be set in a dystopian sci-fi future! This new IP will feature innovative combat mechanics and an original character progression system based on modular upgrades gained through tight, visceral combat," says Deck 13. The characters seem small next to the machines we will have created. Instead of some gameplay or a trailer, the game is being revealed through a first piece of artwork, which shows dark, dilapidated times for humans. First artwork revealed at Gamescom, but no trailer To survive, the younger generation has to search for work in the suburbs, and the only way to be able to compete with the machines is with the help of an exoskeleton. Lords of the Fallen review: doppelganger Lords of the Fallen 2 has a new developer The Surge 2 is coming in 2019 G2A is back in the business of reselling. They have been forced to live in overpopulated cities and are threatened by environmental diseases. The Surge reveals a dark future for human kind, where Artificial Intelligence has evolved immensely, and the human race is falling behind. Deck13 Interactive has proven itself capable in the Souls-like genre, with their latest release The Surge getting a sequel some time this year.The setting is a distant image of modern day London - welcome to the 2020s. That said, I do kind of wonder why they decided to not actively pursue development with Deck13 Interactive once again, the developer behind the original Lords of the Fallen. Among the plethora of titles in the pile are Deck13’s mecha-souls: The Surge for 29.99, Lords of the Fallen for 4.99, and Lords of the Fallen: Complete Edition for 7.49. I have trouble believing that CI Games will be fully capable of finishing the title in-house with outsourcing help, but then again, publishers have pulled off miracles before. “Our team knows how to build quality games as is evident by their key roles in Just Cause 3, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, Far Cry 5, Devil May Cry ( DmC), and many other top tier projects.” "The team that was working on CI Games' project was comprised of exceedingly talented developers whose work we fully stand behind,” stated Defiant managing director David Grijns in an interview with Eurogamer. Of course, Defiant Studios doesn’t quite agree with the statement, stating that they “categorically disagree with the portrayal of Defiant Studios made by CI Games.” It also notes that despite CI Games asking for improvements, Defiant's work was still lower in quality compared to what the publisher expected. If CI Games is to be believed, it would seem that Defiant Studios has failed to make a ‘vertical slice’ worthy of about a year in development. Deck 13 used to work alongside CI Games, but the developer left the project to work on both The Surge and The Surge 2. The quality of the work was lower than expected by the company, as precisely described in the agreement, despite three calls to improve the quality of this stage of work." Since then, original developer Deck 13 Interactive has gone on to make two games in its sci-fi action-RPG series The Surge. Its safe to say that Lords of the Fallen 2 has not had the smoothest development process, with a number of developers leaving the project. As for The Surge, that teaser image at the top of the page is all we have to go on, until the games. "The termination of the agreement was submitted due to inadequate execution by Defiant a key work stage (milestone no. On the bright side, he did reveal that Lords of the Fallen 2 will probably release in 2017. Here it is, courtesy of Eurogamer, who translated it from Polish: CI Games released a press release regarding the end of their partnership with Defiant Studios last Wednesday. The break-up doesn’t sound too great, either. This is only after about a year’s worth of work by Defiant, who was announced back in June of last year as the latest developer for the Nordic Souls-like title. It’s beginning to look like development hell for CI Games’ Lords of the Fallen 2.Įarlier last week, the publisher CI Games and the title’s latest developer, Defiant Studios, ended their partnership on Lords of the Fallen 2, with the Polish publishing company deciding to finish the game in-house with some outsourcing help.
