The official description of the game reads:
Prepare to survive the end of the world as Alex Taylor. With nothing more than your wits and the tools you scavenge, you’ll have to overcome the many treacherous challenges and obstacles that lay ahead – all without making a sound.
Though sneaking around is expected to be a huge chunk of the game—what with the aliens (or Death Angels) that only track sound—it’s unclear how the game is going to be handling combat. First-person would suggest that The Road Ahead would mainly be a shooter, and there are guns in the game; but I expect players will be forced to carry around weapons that don’t make a sound.
Based on the trailer, it also looks like there are environmental elements that would mask the sounds from the Angels including sprinklers and rain. If anything, it could be taking a leaf out of The Last of Us’ book where it’s a tight narrative that has players going through specific setpieces in slightly open maps.
I’ll admit, it’s impressive that A Quiet Place has managed to last this long in the public consciousness, and the franchise only seems to keep evolving. I just hope they don’t adapt it to the ground like what happened with the Terminator films.
A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead is aiming to launch for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S sometime this year.
]]>Just in, we have a new trailer for A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead, and it looks to be a first-person horror game that puts you in this audibly dangerous apocalypse. Check this out:
The official description reads:
The road ahead is paved with sound decisions. Prepare to survive a world of gripping atmosphere and frantic terror, where the smallest sound can spell disaster.
It does look like the game is going to be leaning in on the stealth-horror element, and players will have to be careful just making the slightest bit of sound, lest they summon what the this world had referred to as “The Death Angels”.
Though the first Quiet Place movie was very sparing when it came to the lore of these Death Angels, it looks like these upcoming movies are going to be expanding on their history; how they came to earth, and how the humans reacted to them.
For now, it looks like the arc of the Abbott family isn’t over yet; so I’m guessing that A Quiet Place 3 is going to finally have humanity taking care of the alien threat—or at least find a way to make the planet safe for them once again.
It’s not as big as Transformers, but I have to hand it to The Quiet Place for spinning off as much as it did.
A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead is aiming to launch for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S sometime this year.
