“I am a massive fan of games like Amnesia: The Dark Descent and Alien: Isolation, and have always felt that the kind of narrative-driven, exploration-focused horror these titles deliver would be perfect for VR,” explained Erik Odeldahl, Creative Director at Fast Travel Games. “To make such a game in the World of Darkness setting, specifically the rich and mystical world of Wraith: The Oblivion, is really a dream come true for me, and I cannot wait to share more details about it!“
Brand Manager for World of Darkness at Paradox Interactive, Sean Greaney explained why playing as monsters are so interesting for players.
“By assuming the perspective of a monster, we can gain a better understanding of what it truly means to be human. We’re excited to be taking our first steps from the Skinlands toward Stygia in World of Darkness version 5 in such an innovative and appropriate medium. Death is only the beginning in Wraith: The Oblivion…”
Wraith: The Oblivion – Afterlife will show off gameplay trailer during Gamescom Now which takes place on August 28th at 4 AM AEST.
