Here is 4 minutes of gameplay for the upcoming action RPG ‘The Surge’

Make the most of your exo-suit, armors, and almost limitless armament combinations to survive CREO when The Surge slices its way onto PS4, Xbox One, and PC in 2017.

Deck 13’s new pretty swell looking action-RPG The Surge today unveils a few minutes of unedited gameplay, showing the combat, the limb-cutting system, and a few of the brutal enemies prowling the dysfunctional CREO Complex.

While some of the earlier enemies encountered while exploring the complex – namely, your former fellow workers – have erratic behavior and may be defeated easily if you are not reckless, others are much more “combat-ready”, and will hunt you down relentlessly.

Result of unspoken experiments, volatile prototypes built from secret nano-technology, or simply efficient death machines built for maintaining security in high-risk environments, these enemies leave no room for mistakes during combat. The slightest misstep, or moment of hesitation, will certainly mean death for you.

Looks and sounds a lot like Dead Space (not a terrible thing at all), but the game seems to features a lot of robots, exo-suits and nano-tech gone wild. No idea what’s going on, but from the gameplay alone I’m already liking things.

Focus Home Interactive have been taking a lot of risks and trying a lot of new things, and for that they should be commended. This isn’t an industry that usually rewards risk taking or originality. Fingers crossed The Surge manages to deliver.
