The video below shows off how different this new Fear Effect looks and plays compared to the originals. Square Enix announced Fear Effect Reinvented back in 2017 with a release window of 2018. Obviously that sailed by. Fear Effect came out on PSX back in 2000 and became a cult classic for its cel-shaded graphics and gritty story. It had a Resident Evil-style fixed camera perspective, too. As a refresher, here’s how the original Fear Effect looks: Fear Effect Reinvented, however, is a third-person cover shooter. Here’s the official blurb: “A group of mercenaries on a deadly mission – that can only mean one thing… “Fear Effect Reinvented is an action-adventure, true-to-the-original remake of the first game from the classic Fear Effect franchise - refreshed with improved graphics and controls. “Wi-Ming Lam, the daughter of a Hong Kong Triad boss, has been kidnapped. Take the roles of the mercenary trio: Hana, Glas, and Deke, and try to find the missing girl.” Expect an original story set within three separate campaigns, and “survival horror elements” fused with the new cover-based battle system. What do you think?
