Pathless Productions, a team of former Halo and Call of Duty developers, have announced a new FPS game that will be using Unreal Engine 5, Sentinel.
Sentinel is in a very early development stage right now. According to the devs, it will be a fun sandbox coop-focused experience where you play as a Space Viking trying to save what’s left of humanity.
In order to somehow promote the game, Pathless Productions released the following trailer. This trailer is from a vertical slice demo, meaning that nothing in it is representative of the final product. Its quality is also a bit low and the video is full of artifacts. Furthermore, it doesn’t appear to be THAT impressive (at least for UE5 standards). So yeah, keep your expectations in check before watching it.
Although Pathless Productions has not revealed any platforms for it yet, we can safely assume that it will be coming to PC. That is of course if the developers manage to find a publisher for it.
Enjoy!

halo needs to die already along with destiny and coop shooters, they suck.
Important question to ask….former bungie? or former 343? cause buddy thats gonna make a diffy. if they couldn’t cut it at 343 then…well…I notice no clambering animation, so I think I already know where these jokers came from.
Environment – looks meh developers means nothing nowadays .
Premise – Generic
Sandbox coop-focused ?
A team of former
Overall impression , MEH !
Pedigree doesn’t matter passion does which is seriously lacking in the industry especially with this kind of generic idea that’s been explored in so many games
And look at the Screenshot of Titanfall 2 a game from 2016 looks miles better than this ! https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/aef38845289580ae834addbe2d435e14c7abf626ed7f32948ed264bbcebf0168.jpg
Its a super low res/bitrate video of a game in alpha stages….
I know but I’m talking about the premise of game which is so generic !
Post Apocalyptic Sci Fi with saviour etc etc … This is “New ” IP in making with no new concept …!
There is no features shown that interesting and not offered by the previous games of the studios they have worked .
True, its all been done before. Still currently looks like its at least 3-4 years away from looking like something decent.
You have too high expectations from super early pre-alpha footage by an indie studio. Comparing it directly to finished shots from a AAA blockbuster bankrolled by massive publisher EA is really unfair.
nowadays pre-alpha is the final game
John be like :

They must pay him well. I wonder if they are separate cheques from epic and UE or it’s a bundled payout.

So a Halo Clone!
You could definitely see lots of things borrowed from Halo games, however the voiceover for the trailer seemed… less than ideal… The music wasn’t anywhere near as good as a Halo game either which made the entire trailer seem lackluster. Hopefully they’ll be able to do better with the final release of the game, and the trailer won’t be indicative of the final quality of the game.
Why bother to hire a professional voice actor to record a dozen lines for a pre-alpha trailer? They’re only an indie team. The secretary will do.
Pretty generic at the moment…
a bad mix between : Anthem , Haze , Crysis , in a muddy sluggish package , i hope it will be D.O.A !
Jeeeezus the stutter!
If you had told me this was a Halo map, I would have believed you.
The “social sandbox” slogan in the trailer has me worried. If it’s live service dirge then it’s an automatic skip from me.
Worry? You still doubt the subversive and destructive power of the clown world insanes.
“social sandbox shooter” is PR speak for “live service”.
Forget this exist and stop worrying.
a hint : did you notice the “Anthem” look alike armored soldier ? another Game As Service D.O.A !
Looks crap so far.
D.O.A

Bruh, this looks like crap from all angles, tbh!
Crysis 3 , a game from 2013 , looks wayyyyyy better than this sluggish ugly muddy mess ……
