Developed by the founders of Arkane and the co-creators of Dishonored and Prey, WolfEye Studios’ Weird West has been on many radars since its announcement, and excitement and anticipation for the action RPG immersive sim’s launch has only grown as time has passed. That wait is now over, and to celebrate the game’s launch, publisher Devolver Digital has released a launch trailer. Check it out below.
Weird West tells its story through the perspectives of five different characters against the backdrop of an American frontier that’s being ravaged by outlaws and bandits, but also witches, werewolves, and all manner of beasts. The dark fantasy setting promises the complete freedom and reactivity of immersive sims, so fans of the genre might find plenty to like here.
