Adrift is oxygen-deprived, due out for Oculus, PS4, Xbox One
Adrift is a new space-based game from Three One Zero, and it's coming to Oculus Rift, PS4, Xbox One and Steam in summer 2015, the developer announced tonight at The Game Awards. The first trailer for the game aired during the ceremony, showing a first-person astronaut with a strangely elongated helmet silhouette floating through a damaged space station, attempting to reach a bottle of oxygen before the astronaut's tank ran empty. It was slow and tense, and fairly beautiful. The game's description on its site reads, "ADR1FT is an immersive First Person Experience (FPX) that tells the story of an astronaut in peril. Floating silently amongst the wreckage of a destroyed space station with no memory and a severely damaged EVA suit, the only survivor struggles to determine the cause of the catastrophic event that took the lives of everyone on board. The player fights to stay alive by exploring the wreckage for precious resources, and overcomes the challenges of an unforgiving environment to repair the damaged emergency escape vehicle and safely return home." 505 Games is publishing Adrift.
505 Games publishing Adrift, Three One Zero's trip to space gone wrong
Developer Three One Zero's first-person hardship simulator in space, Adrift, sounds less than forgiving. Unlike its protagonist however, Three One Zero will have company in the form of publisher 505 Games when Adrift launches into orbit in mid-2015, both on PC and to-be-determined consoles. With no memory, a damaged suit and the surrounding clutter of a space station's remains, Adrift's protagonist doesn't have a ton of leisure time. In their push to fix an escape vehicle and return to Earth, players will guide their astronaut's gathering of resources and their search for clues to what caused the former shelter's demise. Players will also lead their character through the act of not dying in space. Adrift will be Three One Zero's first title, a studio formed last September by Omar Aziz and Adam Orth. Previously a creative director at Microsoft's video game division, Orth's comments regarding always-online consoles sparked a strong backlash last year, leading to Microsoft apologizing for the "inappropriate comments." Reports of Orth's departure from Microsoft followed several days later. [Image: 505 Games]
