Samson’s nearly here, and Liquid Swords has dropped a brand-new launch trailer to hype it up, explosions and all.
For those of you who haven’t been keeping up with the action-adventure, it takes a unique approach to debt traps, with the titular Samson forced to pay off mobsters for a botched heist, his sister’s life functioning as collateral. That’s quite the pickle, and it only gets worse if you fail to meet the payment deadline, with the interest threatening to overwhelm you. That’s the kind of desperation that could allow a real hero (and a real human being) to rise from the ashes, or for a lesser one to crumble under its weight.
If you’re thinking about embodying the former, you’ll have to get good with the rugged melee combat and hazardous vehicular chases. Survival isn’t guaranteed, though, and you’re going to have to take each day as it comes in Tyndalston’s vicious streets.
We think that it could catch you by surprise, and while it’s only for PC players right now, Liquid Swords hasn’t fully ruled out the possibility of console versions coming later down the line. In the meantime, Samson: A Tyndalston Story launches April 8 on Steam and the Epic Games Store.
