The Behemoth Reveals Game 4
Prepare for a new tactical, turn-based game oozing with typical Behemoth style.
Jumping out at PAX Prime is the recently-teased project "Game 4," a new title from The Behemoth. Now let's start by saying that "No, Game 4 is not the final name." If it had been though, we wouldn't have been surprised.
Game 4 is described as a "turn-based co-op adventure" in which you and a friend (optional) can "quest and explore, find awesome loot, customize your fighters, and recruit strange species!" There's also a mix of 2v2 PVP.
Curious what the game actually looks like? Here's our first shot of gameplay:
As you move from tile to tile, your character automatically acts based on the surrounding tiles. The Behemoth describes the game as "mechanically very simple," shirking the ever-present concept of juggling abilities in games. They go on to describe Game 4 as a "strategic game of positioning."
"Influenced by unknown forces and a faceless narrator, the player finds themselves guiding 3 tragically-unique heroes through a world littered in bear blood."
Game 4 (title pending) is coming to Xbox One and PC (Steam). For an extended look, dive into the 21-minute PAX Prime stage demo:
