Ghost Story Games has revealed the first key art for Judas and confirmed new details about its gameplay mechanics and story. The release date for the game is still unknown.
Check out the first key art for Judas below:
Additionally, in a new post on the PlayStation Blog, Ken Levine revealed more details about some of Judas‘ mechanics. One of these is the Villainy feature, which he describes as follows:
“Villainy is a central feature of Judas. When you play BioShock or BioShock Infinite, the villain is always going to be the villain. Fontaine, Comstock — they’re always going to be the bad guys. In Judas, your actions will attract members of the Big 3 to you as friends. But ignore one of them enough, and they become the villain. From there, they will get access to a new suite of powers to subvert your actions and goals. The clips below demonstrate just a little bit of the feature.
This is just one example of how the Big 3 can retaliate. The more dangerous and character-specific stuff will be kept a secret, for now. Eventually, you’ll have to make decisions about who you’re going to focus your energy on… and who you’ll wind up alienating.
In Judas, you’re going to get to know these characters intimately. We want losing one of them to feel like losing a friend. We want to play with that dynamic, and we want that choice to be super hard. The Big 3 are all going to be competing for your favor and attention. They can bribe you, save you in battle, talk shit about the other characters, and share with you their darkest secrets. But eventually, you’ve got to decide who you trust and who you don’t.”
Judas will release at some point at a later date on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
