3D Realms announces Graven, the spiritual successor to Hexen 2 – Eurogamer.net

3D Realms has actually announced Graven, the spiritual follower to Hexen 2.
Graven is a dark dream first-person shooter co-published by 3D Realms and 1C Entertainment. Its in advancement at Slipgate Ironworks and is set for launch on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Nintendo Switch and PC in 2021. Expect four-player online and regional multiplayer.
Hexen 2 is the 1997 cult-classic PC dark dream FPS by Raven Software (Raven is obviously now Activision-owned and working on the Call of Duty franchise). Slipgate Ironworks, formerly referred to as Interceptor Entertainment, is the Danish developer that made top-down action game Bombshell. It was co-founded by Frederik Schreiber, vice president of 3D Realms and video game director on Graven.
” Graven started as a game we had actually often imagined,” Schreiber stated. ” What would a spiritual successor to a dark dream series such as Hexen have looked like if it was made in 1998 in the original Unreal engine? We think the response is Graven. We hope you do too.”

Heres the official blurb:
” Take up the mantle of a disgraced Priest in a medieval world where monstrosities wander complimentary. Root out the heretics damaging his brotherhood while helping commoners with their woes. Battle the evils plaguing the lands with more than 30 upgradeable weapons and spells, from wrist-mounted crossbows to wild blasts of lightning.
” Solve environmental puzzles with essential spells to reveal secrets and completely new areas. Engage with townsfolk and learn what troubles them, start a journey through three expansive, open-ended regions, and slay evil opponents. Coordinate with a buddy in split-screen co-op or perhaps form a celebration of four online for magical trouble.”

We believe the response is Graven.
