Game Trailer
The Civil War Era Goes Steampunk In Damnation
August 08, 2008
Codemasters has released the debut trailer for Damnation, the new third person shooter / platformer by developer Blue Omega. Gamers play as Hamilton Rourke a resistance fighter and veteran of “the Great War,” a decades long West versus East kind of thing.
The game started out as a mod in the Make Something Unreal competition, transitioned into a movie script by Michael Urbanski at Blue Omega, and then made it’s way back into development as a feature build. I saw a build at E3 which looks like it has some interesting elements but gave the impression that it needs a lot of work to make its holiday 2008 release date. Check the trailer after the jump for a look at dark armies wearing bowler hats, train track mounted cannons, wraiths with cavalry swords and some serious vertical combat. The only thing it’s missing is a shot of a cyborg Ulysses S. Grant.
