14 DAY TRIAL // Endnight Games, the team behind the upcoming first-person horror survival game The Forest, has released the game's third trailer, unveiling more of its creation.
The Forest is an open-world adventure designed for PC, with Oculus Rift support, targeted at horror games fans who want to explore a living world, and not simply go down corridors mowing down legions of zombies.
The Forest will have changing weather patterns, plants that grow, wither and die depending on environmental conditions and a day-night cycle. Users will have to chop down trees, build a camp and start a fire, exploring and building during the day and then barricading themselves and staying vigilant at night.
Players will take on the role of an anonymous planecrash survival, trying to find his way around a world that is overrun with bloodthirsty abominations. There won't be any narrative or complex storyline to explore, as gamers will be planted in a foreign environment with one single goal, survival.
The third trailer shows the use of cutting edge volume lighting effects, parallax mapping, vector-based motion blur, screen-based real-time reflections and physical materials, as the development team has really pushed the boundaries of Unity 4 in order to produce some of the most visually striking environments ever made.
Endnight Games will launch The Forest on Steam Early Access on May 22, as a playable alpha version, going for $15 / €11.
