Project Pantheon - Das Action-Rollenspiel vermischt zwei Genres, die bislang als unvereinbar galten - video Dailymotion

GameStar

Temporeiche Extraction-Shooter und atmosphärische Action-Rollenspiele der Marke Diablo gibt es viele, aber ein Spiel, das beide Genres miteinander kombiniert? Das ist mal was Neues!      Vorhang auf für Project Pantheon: Das neue Spiel von Wolcen Studio (Wolcen, Bullet Point) spielt in einer düsteren Fantasy-Welt, in der alle Mythen und Legenden unserer Gesellschaft wahr geworden sind und sogar die Überreste von Göttern einfach herumliegen und darauf warten, von euch erkundet zu werden.      Diese Dead Gods fungieren demnach als Ausflugsziele für euch und eure Mitspieler. Ihr geht rein, bekämpft Gegner, sammelt Schätze ein und müsst lebendig wieder herauskommen. Wie genau das aus Shootern bekannte Extraction-Prinzip hier angewendet wird, ist noch nicht ganz klar.      Im obigen Trailer erzählen euch drei leitende Entwickler des Studios (Narrative Director Adam Dowden, Game Director Andrei Chirculete und Art Director Elliot Bocxtaele) mehr über Project Pantheon. Mehr zum Spiel sehen wir vielleicht rund um die bevorstehende gamescom in Köln, die vom 20. bis 24. August 2025 stattfindet.

00:00.

00:08Project Pantheon takes place in a universe

00:11where all mythology is real.

00:13And you are enlisted by Death,

00:17a cosmic entity above all of the other gods,

00:20who needs your assistance to help clean things up.

00:23We built it more in a way of the players

00:26kind of uncovering what this world is about

00:28as they explore the game, as they play through it.

00:31And the key word for us is really

00:33this immersive world-building element.

00:35Our universe being dark fantasy,

00:38it's something that we feel is supposed to be oppressing,

00:41terrifying, nightmarish.

00:43So in essence, it's a world you wouldn't wish

00:45your worst enemies to live in.

00:48So as a player, you are empowered by Death.

00:51You can harness and use powers

00:54far beyond what your mortal body could have.

00:57I think what excites me most

00:59is the fact that it's a new genre

01:01and it's creating something innovative.

01:05The unique combination that we have

01:07of an extraction game and a top-down action RPG

01:11is something that is super fun to work on.

01:14One of the things that we're very excited about

01:16are our Dead Gods,

01:17that are essential landmarks on our maps,

01:20that player will have the opportunity to explore.

01:24These are opportunities for us to create interesting stories

01:27as to what happened to them

01:29and why did the gods die

01:31and give an incentive to players to come back

01:33and try to figure things out.

01:35So we wanted things to feel visceral,

01:38to feel even though it's mythology,

01:40it's something that's plausible,

01:41something that you can see and touch.

01:43And the art style is massively important there,

01:46but we're not shying away from the brutality.

01:49We create unique sceneries of, for example,

01:52Drakkar stuck in ice.

01:54Players will be able to explore Greek temples

01:57or pyramids that were built by the gods.

02:00We create visuals that we feel haven't been explored in the past.

02:05Huge dead gods in the scenery that tell a story

02:09that invites players to explore the universe.

02:14And it's always this intense feeling that you get.

02:19And what I think is that this leads to a more immersion

02:23into each gameplay match that you play.

02:26It makes every single match more unique.

02:28At the end when they extract it,

02:30they feel they really overcome the odds

02:33that it was an uphill battle,

02:34but they made it anyways.

02:36This whole gameplay loop is meant to lead sports players

02:41feeling a huge exhilarating feeling of relief

02:45when they managed to make it out with something

02:47they really wanted to extract out of a session.

02:49Resources are scarce.

02:51You want to go in the map,

02:52but then extract as quickly as possible.

02:55And that's the feeling that, you know,

02:57this is for us where art and gameplay actually intertwine.

03:02They should expect the unexpected.

03:04No one match might be quite like another.

03:07Okay.

03:08Bye.
