Ex-Metro Developers Unveil New Sci-Fi Shooter 'La Quimera'
In a surprise announcement, former developers from the acclaimed 4A Games, known for the Metro series, have revealed their latest project: a sci-fi shooter titled 'La Quimera'. Diverging from the familiar post-apocalyptic landscapes of Moscow’s metro tunnels, this new game transports players to a vibrant, yet perilous, Latin American metropolis set in a near-future scenario.
A New Setting and Story
Set against the backdrop of a fictional Latin American city, 'La Quimera' challenges players to navigate a world where technology has turned hostile. Machines have gone rogue, attacking humans indiscriminately. Players step into the boots of a down-on-his-luck mercenary, thrust into the chaos of battling rival factions and malfunctioning technology in a bid for survival.
Gameplay and Features
True to their roots, the developers maintain the essence of a dark, atmospheric first-person shooter. 'La Quimera' introduces futuristic exosuits as a core gameplay element. These suits not only provide protection but also enhance combat capabilities with advanced weaponry and special abilities, such as deploying drones and activating EMPs. This innovative feature draws parallels with classics like 'Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare' and 'Crysis', promising dynamic and tactical gameplay.
Development Insights
In an exclusive interview, the team behind 'La Quimera' shared insights into their creative process. They emphasized their commitment to crafting a unique experience by blending a compelling narrative with cutting-edge gameplay mechanics. The decision to set the game in a vibrant Latin American city aims to offer players an unfamiliar yet intriguing environment, distinct from the often-explored apocalyptic settings.
Release Information
'La Quimera' is slated for release on April 25, 2025, and will be available on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S. With its innovative setting, engaging story, and advanced gameplay mechanics, it promises to be a refreshing addition to the shooter genre.
