3D Realms has announced that it will reveal a new dark-fantasy FPS during its upcoming Realms Deep 2020 event. Realms Deep 2020 will be an online festival, celebrating old-school and retro First Person Shooters from around the world.

During this event, players can expect game reveals from some of the genre’s biggest names including New Blood Interactive (DUSK, Amid Evil, Gloomwood, ULTRAKILL), NightDive Studios (System Shock, DOOM 64, Turok remasters), Running with Scissors (the POSTAL series) and many, many more. According to the team, more than 40 games will be in this event.

As an FPS fan, I’m really looking forward to this event. Also, I’d like to note that 3D Realms has not clarified whether this dark-fantasy FPS is game it’s developing or not.

This show will also have a lot o gaming icons including John Romero (DOOM, Empire of Sin), Tim Willits (id Software, Saber Interactive), Cliff Bleszinski (Unreal, Gears of War), American McGee (id Software, American McGee’s Alice), Chuck Jones (3D Realms, Valve), Jon St. John (voice actor for Duke Nukem), and Stephan Weyte (voice actor for Caleb in Blood).

  1. huh i know some of those games. One is a mod. The other is set in soviet poland, i think i saw a sci fi one i seen in youtube.

    Anyway looks like this show will be better than what sony and ms put up lately….to make us buy new consoles.

    1. Hmmm…
      Hexen is awesome but extremely convoluted level design kept me from finishing the game! IF they can make it with less-backtracking that im all for it!

      1. I actually only finally finished Hexen for the first time a week or two ago, after runs that made it either to hub 3 or 4. I did have a blast that run because until the Castle of Grief I already knew most of what I had to do. Hub 5 is actually very straightforward, if you make it there you’re as good as done.

        I know upfront Hexen’s level design seems insanely obtuse but I don’t think it is. There’s always logic to it, I think the challenge is the size and complexity perhaps and remembering important details. But part of me really likes how ambitious it was for idtech 1 and how pretty it is.

        I would love a new 3D Realms Build engine fantasy game that looks to Hexen and Metroid Prime for world design inspiration.
