Focus Home Interactive announced today its partnership with Deck13 Interactive to bring gamers a new premium action RPG IP set in a dystopian sci-fi future to be revealed by name at a later date.
The new game will feature innovative combat mechanics and an original character progression system based on modular upgrades gained through tight, visceral combat.
Deck13 Interactive CEO’s Florian Stadlbauer said:
“We are delighted to be working with Focus Home Interactive. Our relationship with the company over the past few months has created a lot of trust and confidence already. During the past years, the Focus team has shown that they are extremely successful in marketing European titles worldwide.”
Klose, Deck13 Interactive CEO and Creative Director, added:
“After our recent major project, the team at Deck13 is eager to take on the next challenge. We have learned a lot and want to deliver an even greater experience to core gamers this time.”
Focus Home Interactive’s Managing Partner Cedric Lagarrigue concluded:
“We are ecstatic to announce this new partnership with one of the very best independent European development studios. We’ve been excited by Deck13’s new project since our first exchange with them, and as we’ve just got through the pre-production phase, we’re fully convinced by their capacities to deliver one of the most exciting RPGs to come in the future.”
The unannounced IP will be revealed at a later date, and the game is expected to launch on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC with a retail and digital release in 2017.

dystopian Sci-fi…i am fine even if they use a Dark Souls combat with this theme lol.
sci fi with swords would be a little odd though lol
With Lords of Fallen graphics and light scattering bloom effects!
after witcher 3.. i don’t think any devs can come close with that beast. but still i hope this is good.
well i guess it depends how much actiony vs rpg it is. i mean i dont like games like the witcher or skyrim (way too rpg for my tastes) but i do love games like dark souls, even though they have rpg elements they rely more on the action side of things
thought it was brought by Corsair lol. That logo is a rip off. Deck13 we see what you did there.
The concept art looks similar to Elysium.
