First announced in 2019, AntiMatter Games’ I.G.I. Origins has received its first pre-alpha gameplay reveal. Development is going on at a “good pace,” and the team is “looking forward to sharing more details” en route to the official release.
Set in 1980 during the Cold War, I.G.I. Origins is a prequel to the first game and sees the player engaging in espionage. As Regent, you serve MI6 and complete different missions to prevent all-out nuclear war, eventually leading to the founding of the Institute of Geotactical Intelligence or I.G.I. Along with silenced weapons and rifles, one can use the shadows to their advantage, slinking around enemies without attracting attention and choking them out.
There are also Night Vision Goggles for fighting in the dark (as you do). I.G.I. Origins is coming to Xbox One, PS4, and PC. It’s not confirmed yet for Xbox Series X/S and PS5, but perhaps an announcement will be forthcoming. Stay tuned in the meantime for updates.
