34BigThings, the developer behind 2016’s excellent anti-grav racer Redout, is hard a work on a new intergalactic shooter spin-off set in the Redout universe. It’s called Redout: Space Assault and there’s a first proper look at its dogfighting action in a new gameplay video.
Redout: Space Assault was apparently revealed back in June, in among the usual the avalanche of E3 announcements, and I’m sorry to say that the news completely passed me by. My interest is certainly piqued now, however: I had a lot of fun with Redout’s breathless, gorgeously presented racing action (and it’s stupendous soundtrack), especially in VR.
At first glance, Space Assault’s deep-space dogfighting would seem to suggest that this is Redout in name only. However, 34BigThings insists that its spin-off maintains “the adrenaline rush, high skill ceiling, frantic pace and popping aesthetics” of its predecessor.
