[TGA 2019] Weird West Is An Even Deadlier Wild West

Remember when those people that made Prey and Dishonored went off to form their own studio? There was a lot of speculation as to why, mostly surrounding a certain publisher that might be named after a town in Maryland. There was a lot of mystery surrounding what the new studio, named WolfEye, might be up to. Well, we finally have an answer. Unveiled at tonight’s The Game Awards 2019, Weird West is a western that looks… weird.

Which makes sense, since WolfEye is partnering with Devolver Digital on this one. Since Devolver is basically known for making violent and stylistic indie games, it’s a good fit. Not much is known about Weird West at the moment, other than that it seems to feature all sorts of ghoulies. The game also features a top-down view, so I’d be willing to bet it’s something tactical. Here’s more info from the Official Press Release:

Discover a dark fantasy reimagining of the Wild West where lawmen and gunslingers share the frontier with fantastical creatures. Journey through the origin stories of a group of atypical heroes, written into legend by the decisions you make in an unforgiving land. Each journey is unique and tailored to the actions taken – a series of high stakes stories where everything counts and the world reacts to the choices you make. Form a posse or venture forth alone into an otherworldly confines of the Weird West and make each legend your own.
