The new cooperative shooter Outriders has received a new trailer. And it’s not just visually impressive – the booming sound will blow your ears away.
This is Outriders: The cooperative shooter Outriders was first presented at E3 2019. It features a merciless alien world that seems quite apocalyptic. A visually striking mix where monster battles seem to be the order of the day. It was announced for late 2020 – not only for PS4, Xbox One, and PC, but also for the next-gen consoles PS5 and Xbox Series X.
In the new trailer for the game from Square Enix and People Can Fly, this combination comes across quite explosively. No wonder: Anyone who knows “Bulletstorm” from People Can Fly knows that the level of explosions can shoot up quickly. But see for yourself:
This is what the trailer contains: Outriders presents itself as a mix of sci-fi and fantasy elements. Destiny-like weapons and seemingly magical abilities clash with Doom-like monsters, resulting in quite wild skirmishes.
This is accompanied by a pretty epic soundscape of explosions and loud music. If you also watched the trailer with your headset turned up, your ears probably blew away too. But in a good way!
What is the song from the Outriders reveal trailer? It is “Blood in the River” by ZEAL & ARDOR.
First reactions – what do the players say?
Here’s what the comments say: In the comments, there are plenty of comparisons with other games. No wonder, as the Outriders trailer combines many different genres at once. The comments mention:
- Square’s take on a loot shooter
- Square’s version of Anthem
- Devil May Cry, Rage, and Gears of War
- Destiny and Infamous
However, many comments also point out that there is essentially nothing visible from the gameplay perspective. What exactly is in Outriders will only become clear later.
For our author Andreas, Outriders is already among the most exciting cooperative games we can expect this year:
