Developers Pet Project Games and 3D Realms show fans exciting new content from their upcoming game Ripout in the latest gameplay trailer. The new horror game looks like it has exciting things in store for the gameplay and enemies.
Ripout is an online co-op horror game, where players have to fight their way through derelict spaceships filled with mutants. The latest gameplay trailer shows players what to expect from the enemies, the combat, and the movement. The trailer also confirms that the game will be coming to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X.
The trailer opens with quiet and ominous spaceships, but it quickly explodes into a blaze of combat. Viewers will notice a range of weapons, from shotguns to grenades, and attentive watchers will have spotted the Pet Gun companion. Throughout Ripout players will have to collect loot and customize their characters to survive the horrors ahead, and the living-weapon companion called the Pet Gun looks like a unique addition to the arsenal. Whether the game will utilize loot boxes is yet to be announced, and some games such as Overwatch 2 might be ditching loot boxes all together.
Ripout promises co-op gameplay, and this is something that fans will notice during the gameplay trailer. Pet Project Games and 3D Realms deliver in force on their promise of a variety of reconfigurable monsters. The trailer shows players fighting a host of genetically altered beings who can strengthen and reconfigure themselves by attaching smaller mutants to their bodies. This means that gamers won't need to suggest new concepts for enemy types like this Deep Rock Galactic player.
Some have been quick to draw comparisons between Ripout and other games. Fans noted the similarities to Doom and Deep Rock Galactic, which is getting a board game adaptation. However, the cooperative gameplay looks like it will set Ripout apart from its competitors. Teaming up with friends to defeat the mutants will be a lot of fun, and the ability to customize characters will let Ripout players find synergy between their character builds.
Furthermore, Ripout is built around procedurally generated levels.This means that players will be able to find plenty of replay-factor when grinding for new gear and weapons. As enemies can also reconfigure their bodies to introduce unexpected threats to the gameplay, Ripout promises unique experiences in every playthrough.
Ripout is the debut release from developers and publishers Pet Project Games, so it's hard to know just how much to expect from this indie title. Only time will tell how successful Ripout will be.
Ripout will be available later this year on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X.
