Peripeteia is an upcoming first-and-third-person role-playing stealth game taking place in alt-history cyberpunk Poland. Inspired by immersive sims from Ion Storm and Looking Glass Studios, Peripeteia expands on the formula with new ideas and an original setting.
Huge levels with multiple viable paths to get to the objective, with different ways to approach the actual mission. As a mercenary you get to pick or juggle agendas of three different factions while completing your tasks. Resource based access to augmented cybernetics. Shares D.N.A. with Deus Ex, E.Y.E, Half-Life 2 Beta.
Highly recommend to check the available demos, especially “The Chasm” level as it is the most representative of the style of levels, that we’re going to get with the full release.
Comes out this year.
Yeah all the trailers make it look like a straight-up shooter with all the Matrixesque dodging and bullet-time.
In actual game the combat is deadly and you have to plan around using your augments, which consume energy. Energy can be replenish by eating batteries but there is limited number of those in the level and they are kinda scarce, requiring exploration to stock up. You have to think around - do I use it for the few seconds of invisibility to get past the guards and sneak to the elevator and reach my target or maybe to jump higher in a few particular places outside and scale the building or just go full Matrix on the guards and suffer with limited to no energy for night-vision later on. You’ll see yourself in the demo.
Sounds kind of sick… Giving me Heat Signatures vibes, if you’ve played that. Sneaking around and using resources wisely to infiltrate ships so your character doesn’t get permadeathed. That mixed with max payne and tarkov. Looks cool.
