Koei: Quantum Theory is not a Gears Clone

Posted By | On 08th, May. 2010

In an interview, Tecmo Koei boss Yoshiki Sugiyama has said that despite his latest game Quantum Theory shares many similarities with the Gears of War franchise, the game will be unique. He said: “If gamers assume they know what awaits them, if they assume Quantum Theory is going to be just another shooter, they’re going to be surprised.”

“While the style may share similar traits of a post-apocalyptic world inhabited by hardened warriors it’s the co-operation between our two characters that makes Quantum Theory so unique, The fact you have to physically manipulate this spectacularly acrobatic partner while launching your own assaults makes for an interesting new dynamic – and of course the battle ground is always changing and shifting. There’s a living tower at the heart of this story, a fantastical construction that is never as it seems.”

Stay tuned with GB for more news and updates as we approach the game’s planned release this summer.
