Weird West is the upcoming isometric action role-playing game from WolfEye Studios, created by veterans of Arkane Studios. The founder and former president of Arkane is now leading the WolfEye Studios.
Chris Avellone is also attached to the project, who you might know from games such as Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic II, Fallout New Vegas, Prey, Divinity Original Sin II, and many more.
Weird West is a dark fantasy re-imagining of the Wild West, in which lawmen and gunslingers share the frontier with supernatural creatures.
According to Colantonio, there’s not much difference in the spirit from the previous games, and players will find themselves at home. Instead of seeing though the eyes of the protagonist, you will now have the chance to run a party of characters. Exploring and everything else is still the same spirit.
Lastly, Colantonio also mentioned that characters can die, but you can revive them. However, if you don’t, something menacing might happen. Maybe they might come back someday in the form of an undead. Sounds…fun!

Weird West is coming out in 2021, along with a demo which will probably come much sooner.

Chris was born in the early 80’s along with the very birth of home gaming. After spending many maaany drachmas on arcades, his father decided to buy him a PC instead of going bankrupt. He lived through the advancing and development of the gaming industry, having played TONS of games on all platforms. He is always honest and will never hesitate to give his true opinion on a game no matter what. Loves stealth games and dislikes microtsansactions, DLC and pre-ordering…who doesn’t after all?!
