Paradox dévoile aujourd’hui ce qui sera la suite de la série Surviving, à savoir une déclinaison du précédent titre qui avait pris pour cadre la planète rouge, d’ailleurs joliment repeinte en vert et bleu avec la dernière extension, et qui semble-t-il va maintenant être repeinte en noir. La couleur de l’apocalypse ! Qui pourrait d’ailleurs aussi se dérouler sur une autre planète, car après tout il n’y a pas que Mars dans l’espace, mais il est encore trop tôt pour le savoir.
Si l’idée semble alléchante, tout au moins pour les amateurs du genre Postapo, ce teaser reste néanmoins très obscur. On peut pourquoi pas imaginer que les développeurs de Haenimont Games s’inspireront de la formule de l’excellent Rimworld (voir cet article) car même si les gameplay diffèrent sur certains aspects, le sympathique moteur de jeu de Surviving Mars pourrait probablement bien s’adapter. Mais ne prophétisons pas, nous verrons quand arrivera une vraie bande-annonce puis quand débutera la phase Accès anticipé, dans quelques mois.
Pour plus d’informations sur Surviving the Aftermath, faute de site officiel, patientez jusqu’au 19 octobre prochain, date à laquelle le jeu sera présenté plus en détails, en attendant une sortie prévue fin 2020. Concernant Surviving Mars, voyez cette page chez l’éditeur ou cette fiche sur Steam, ou encore le wiki officiel. Ainsi que notre test.
