If you want nothing more than to sic a six-shooter on vampires, it’s safe to assume that Evil West will deliver – but whether it will keep its fangs sharp throughout its 10-15 hour runtime is another question entirely.Įvil West launches on November 22 for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.EVIL WEST AT PAX EAST 2022 April 15 th 2022Įvil West is playable at PAX East 2022 at the Focus Entertainment booth!įocus Entertainment and Flying Wild Hog are pleased to announce that Evil West will be playable for the first time as part of the publisher’s lineup on the show floor at PAX East 2022! The third-person action game from Flying Wild Hog puts you in the boots of a vampire hunter chasing the bloodthirsty monstrosities to save the Wild West from being engulfed by a dark menace.Įradicate bloodthirsty creatures with a full level to discoverĭraw your weapons and battle your way through the shadows to eradicate a threat that lies beneath your feet. Undeniably, there’s a lot that Evil West gets right: beyond the fantastic combat, the Western-meets-vampires setting is brilliant and the demo ended with the promise of a very interesting story. Though Evil West‘s level design felt monotonous, we loved our previous hands-on at Gamescom – so it’s possible that this area in particular is just a bit of a dud. When the game launches, it’ll be available on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X & S, and PC. Evil West‘s biggest strength – gory, chaotic vampire slaying – was diminished because of the level’s formulaic and repetitive design. Evil West’s release date was pushed back from September 20th to November 22, 2022. Between each scrap, there was the occasional bit of non-violent platforming to get through but even this was fairly mundane as there’s no challenge or critical thinking involved – just running from one panel to the next and unlocking the way forward.
EVIL WEST FLYING WILD HOG PC
The entire level boiled down to walking for a bit, surviving a few waves of vampires in a locked arena, and walking to the next arena to fight in. Evil West will launch for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC via Steam on September 20, publisher Focus Entertainment and developer Flying Wild Hog announced. That being said, the demo started to feel very repetitive. Unfortunately we couldn’t get the second boss fight to work properly – it’s an unfinished build, so the bat monster declined a gentlemanly duel in favour of staring unresponsively out to sea – but in the minutes it worked, it was a thrilling fight. Two boss fights – a gargantuan shielded vampire and an equally huge bat thing – turned Evil West‘s intensity up tenfold, and surviving both encounters meant becoming a dodge-rolling ball of death as each antagonist summoned in help along with their heavy hitting attacks. The most common of which are speedy Nosferatu-style ghouls that want to tear you to shreds up-close, but the hands-on also threw horrendously bloated flies, spore-slinging undead and gargantuan bosses at poor Rentier. However, you’re not the only one that’s been well-equipped, as the Old West’s vampires come in all shapes and sizes. With a hammer-fanned revolver and big punchy gauntlet thrown into the mix, Evil West‘s frequent intense shootouts feel fluid and explosive. Instead of switching between guns, you’re able to fire any of them with a single button-press: aiming down your sights with a repeater rifle is perfect for landing precision shots on distant foes, but for any vampires that manage to close the gap, a messy re-death at the wrong end of a double-barrel shotgun awaits. In minutes, you’re fighting off hordes of bloodsuckers with an arsenal of satisfying weapons. For Rentier, that job is hunting the vampires that have infested the Old West, and for this level he’s heading guns-blazing into a snow-swept mining outpost. In a hands-on demo, protagonist Jesse Rentier is thrown in at the deep end, forgoing any tutorial for an on-the-job learning experience.
