Two Bullets To The Head And A Packet Of Crisps
For those that played last years VR FPS The London Heist, watching the trailer for Blood & Truth play out might look like the developers are retreading the same old formula. After all, it has all the familiar components; British gangsters, plenty of violence and the odd trip to the pub.
Not to say that said formula isn’t fun. The London Heist turned out to be an enjoyable experience reminiscent of a Guy Richie movie, but how does this new project plan to raise the bar? By apparently injecting a fresh dose of Michael Bay into the mix.
According to an article on Polygon –
Sonyâs London Studio revealed its new game, Blood and Truth, at Paris Games Week today. The PlayStation VR action game is inspired by the studioâs previous action game experiment, The London Heist, according to its creators.
The London Heist was a PlayStation VR demo featured in Sonyâs PlayStation VR Worlds collection. Sonyâs London Studio said it went back to that title to turn it into a full game and âdial it up to 11â with expanded gameplay.
While The London Heist was described as a âlove letter to classic cockney gangster movies,â Blood and Truth draws its inspiration from âmore classic action moviesâ and Hollywood blockbusters, according to the studio. And where The London Heist was more âstatic,â players will be able to move, shoot, dual wield and reload in frantic action scenes.
London Studio said todayâs look at Blood and Truth was a small sample of what to expect, promising even more locations and a look at the âglamour and grit of modern day London.â
Does this mean that we’ll actually get to blow the bloody doors off?
