| The Collective Develops Harker for Next-Gen Platforms The Collective is working on a new original game entitled "Harker" for next generation consoles. The game, inspired by the classic horror novel, "Dracula", is set to take the survival horror genre in a new and much more personal direction. In the game, players take on the role of a very different Jonathan Harker - hardened and ruthless - who is on a very personal mission to destroy all vampires after his beloved Mina falls prey to Dracula. Gameplay involves a combination of hunting these ferocious killers through tracking and exploration, along with an up-close and personal combat system, brutally-effective in the execution of the vampires; using a variety of weapons and environmental factors. "Harker" will bring to life the underbelly of the 18th Century World, taking players into diverse locations, areas never explored in history books, in a gritty, realistic art style that will fully immerse players in their environments. The game also features an incredible roster of blood-thirsty, shape-shifting vampires each with their own savage abilities, sometimes hiding in plain sight; the player may never know just how close they are. "Harker" is scheduled for completion in 2008. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Game News :: home page |
