The creator of It Takes Two has revealed his new recreation, and it seems to be to be a really related fashion of co-op journey with a sci-fi and fantasy theme.
Given the every day leaks that nearly each different nook of the video games business is topic to, it’s unusual that nearly nothing was spoiled about The Recreation Awards 2024 earlier than it occurred. One of many few exceptions was Cut up Fiction, the brand new recreation from It Takes Two creator Josef Fares.
The one motive that leaked is as a result of it’s out surprisingly quickly, on March 6, with Fares’ potty-mouthed reveal making it clear that the fundamentals are nonetheless similar to It Takes Two, with a boast of a singular gameplay mechanic for each stage.
Because the title suggests, the sport makes use of an identical split-screen impact to It Takes Two however with a very new story that includes two writers who find yourself being caught in the identical digital actuality world that’s designed to recreate their fictional worlds – one fantasy themed and the opposite sci-fi.
Though the mechanics are meant to be completely different every stage – you possibly can see all the pieces from snowboarding to being trapped on a large’s axe within the trailer – there appears to be an emphasis on evolving the state of affairs from one stage to a different, quite than it being fully completely different every time.
So, for instance, in a single stage you discover some dragon eggs and hatch them, then within the subsequent stage the dragons are larger and may crawl round on the bottom capturing what seems to be like acid out of their mouths. Then, within the stage after that, they’re absolutely grown and also you’re capable of fly on their backs.
One other instance entails rolling round inside a Metroid fashion morph ball, earlier than it breaks aside and turns into an exosuit for you within the subsequent stage. Fares additionally talked a couple of stage the place you play as a pig after which a sausage however we’re undecided if that was purported to be a joke or not.
When will Cut up Fiction be launched?
Cut up Fiction will probably be launched on March 6 for Xbox Collection X/S, PlayStation 5, and PC. In contrast to nearly all the opposite video games at The Video games Awards it was playable on the night time, so there doesn’t appear a lot likelihood of a delay (it most likely would’ve been introduced earlier however we suspect Fares was ready for the awards present to disclose it, as he’s a pal of presenter Geoff Keighley).
As with It Takes Two, you’ll solely want to purchase one copy of the sport to play with a pal, so that you don’t each should pay with a view to benefit from the on-line co-op. With It Takes Two that concerned sharing a code that the one which does purchase it’s free to present to whoever they like – which is a really welcome money-saving function.
