Chorus looks great in its trailer, but it’s certainly going to need to talk about its logo. It looks like it spells ‘Chorvs’ and that’s exactly what I wrote in my notes.
The game, Chorus, is a space-combat shooter set in space with a seemingly dark story and deeper narrative than you may expect from the genre.
Check out the trailer and official description below.
Take control of Nara, once the Circle’s deadliest warrior, now their most wanted fugitive, on a quest to destroy the dark cult that created her. Unlock devastating weapons and mind-bending abilities in a true evolution of the space-combat shooter. Along with Forsaken, her sentient starfighter, explore ancient temples, engage in exhilarating zero-g combat, and venture beyond our waking reality.
In Chrous you’ll be exploring space-stations and more as Nara and then taking to the stars inside the mysterious and powerful spacecraft. It’s not your normal flight-game however as there’s a mix of special powers here including teleportation and telekinesis.
