You might be forgiven for needing a refresher about ExeKiller, a single-player action-adventure title from Paradark Studio. However, we’ve been excited for it ever since we had a sit-down with the team, where they made us even more eager to dive into a dark and gritty world.
Well, our patience is now closer to being rewarded, as the game now has a publisher with 505 Games taking over the responsibilities of bringing this one to PC via Steam. As for that refresher, this one has you taking on the role of Denzel Fenix (who’s unrelated to the more popular Marcus Fenix), in a version of America that combines the past and present with interesting results.
It isn’t a technological powerhouse, but a civilization that has since collapsed, leaving Denzel to navigate a new kind of Wild West. He’s going to find himself in situations where his choices as the titular killer could have unexpected consequences later down the line, with an interesting caveat being that you’re going to be hard-pressed to predict when such decisions make themselves known.
He’s a bounty hunter slated to meet an intriguing cast of characters as he speeds across the land in his trusty hovercar, the Appaloosa. On the gameplay front, the dynamic HUD and the lack of an XP-levelling system mean that you’re going to be all-in, looking for every advantage you can find as you take on missions and hunt down your targets.
There isn’t a release date at this moment, but you can be sure we’re going to be telling you about it when it comes along. There is that trailer from earlier this year if you want to get a closer look at it, though.
