First look at Cryengine3 powered PS4 ‘Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture’

The Chinese Room, the studio behind the PC indie hit Dear Esther has revealed some information about Everybody's Gone To The Rapture, a first person adventure developed for the Playstation 4.

At the official Playstation Blog, the co-directors of the story driven title Dan and Jessica have detailed more about the game which involves taking control of a scientist who is trying to work out why an apocalypse has taken place.

The Chinese Room say “It’s all about the end of the world. You play the role of a scientist, trapped in the very second of the apocalypse, and the game is about discovering what has happened. You do this by exploring a large open-world environment, and interacting with the objects, places and people you find to gradually unlock and put together the story.”

The developer details that the game is a non-linear adventure focusing on a well scripted storyline and the 'emotional journey' of the characters. Check out the trailer on this page.

Kitguru says: It certainly looks interesting, but we reserve final judgement until we get time to play it.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
