Abandoned, a cinematic survival sim, hits PS5 later this year

Plan every move, weigh up every decision as you try and escape the sprawling wilderness.
Hello everyone! I'm Hasan Kahraman from Blue Box Game Studios based in The Netherlands. The team and I are working on our new title, coming exclusively to PS5 this year and I can't wait to show off some gameplay footage from the game in action. However, since the game is at an early development stage, I wanted to announce the game today and show off a little announcement teaser we made.

Abandoned is a cinematic, first-person horror survival shooter set in a highly detailed open world environment and favours a realistic approach to survival

Out of nowhere. Like this tech demo.

Will wait for the gameplay trailer.

Every event has an influence on your character. If Jason is out of breath after sprinting (or is afraid), his firing accuracy will suffer. Unlike action shooter titles, firing weapons in Abandoned will be realistically slow. You will need to be tactical in order to survive.

Sounds like something I could really get into.

if they nail atmosphere and exploration with an actual scary survival game... it can be great.

i'm cautiously excited :)

Uhhh, looks rough. Dunno why Sony would choose to highlight this.

Could be interesting, but not expecting much. What have the devs made?

Also how does early development = this year?

Why show a work in progress if your frame rate is sub 15fps, keep that shit locked away until its stable.

My bad, I misread what was said in the video description.
The tech demo is out "soon", updated thread title in time luckily.

Game runs in Native 4k at 60fps on PS5.

... I can't have been the only one who thought that this meant the development on a PS5 exclusive survival horror game had been abandoned right?

It looks rather clunky.

Let's wait for the gameplay reveal I guess, but I don't have high expectations for now.

'a strong, blood-loving community led by a religious nut job!...'

well, if nothing else, the writing's quite imaginative/impressive...

"Our team is still unravelling the power of PS5 but we've made amazing progress so far. The console allows us to process high quality motion capture, all running at 60 FPS and rendered at a native 4K"

As they seem to be saying the gameplay is slower paced I will take a slimmed down PSVR2 version.

Hoping this game fulfills my desire of Silent Hill, though it feels more Blair Witch with guns to me.

Frame rate is a bit ropey, but the graphics look incredible.

The frame rate in the video isn't great at all. Hopefully the final product will actually be 60 frames per second like they said.

Here's the developer's website: https://www.blueboxgamestudios.com/

They seem to have announced a PS4 game called Rewind: Voices of the Past that never released: http://www.rewind-thegame.com/

It was featured in the July 2015 issue of GamesMaster: https://magazinesfromthepast.fandom.com/wiki/GamesMaster_Issue_293

And was also on Steam Greenlight: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=516577397

So yeah I imagine that's a dead project.

Hopefully this one sees release.

Until the not so great fire smoke effects I was ready to believe that was actual filmed footage with a heavy filter over it. Looks cool!
