Deck13’s The Surge was a sleeper hit when it released last year, offering a sci-fi take on From Software’s Souls formula to solid effect. The game got a great DLC called A Walk In The Park that brought more good times, but now the publisher and developer have revealed that The Surge 2 is on the way.
Publisher Focus Home Interactive and developer Deck13 have announced that The Surge 2 is currently in development for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC. While the game doesn’t have a concrete release date yet, the game is slated for a release at some point in 2019. The following is the official announcement from the developer:
“The Surge 2 keeps what fans and critics loved about the original – hardcore combat utilizing a unique, dynamic limb targeting system and deep character progression – while also expanding greatly upon the formula.
The Surge 2 takes place in a brand new environment: a sprawling, devastated city with larger and more ambitious level design, made possible by Deck13’s upgraded and improved engine.
Combat is more brutal and tactical than ever, with even more options thanks to an expanded limb targeting system. In addition, more abilities, weapons, implants, and drones give players a vast arsenal to build their character with, in their fight against the array of diverse new enemies and bosses.”
There’s more information on the game that will be coming very soon, as Focus Home Interactive will be hosting an event in Paris from February 7th to 8th called “Le What’s Next de Focus.” It’s likely that we will get a bit more information on the game and possibly a teaser trailer, though it will likely be a while longer until we get the full details.
