First of all, this game is crazy mysterious in that not much is known about it. An action-adventure type game that is exclusive to Xbox One and Windows 10, coming from the makers of Metroid Prime. Basically all we know thus far is what was shown in the trailer and what’s on the ReCore website. Here is a list of what is known:
Robots
Robots. Robots EVERYWHERE. They are either heroes, companions, or just plain weird. They are reportedly uniquely charming and powerful, so sayeth the creators.
Grappling Hook
In the trailer, a young woman is traveling with a puppy bot companion and she uses the aforementioned hookshot to remove the enemy cores, thus powering down enemies.
Cores
The power source for robots that is sometimes transferable, as seen in the trailer when puppy bot blows up and the young woman salvages the core. She then finds a cyborg thingy and inserts the core, and her puppy bot friend breathes once more. Just this time, it is a person cyborg thingy.
Delayed
The game was originally supposed to be released sometime between April-June of 2016 exclusively for Xbox One, but on January 4th, it was announced that the game will be released for Windows 10 systems as well, and that final release date has been pushed back.
That’s about it. Even their site for updating has been inactive since July. They must be super busy working on the game than to keep updating us. But that’s okay, because I’m intrigued. Ever since the movies I Robot and Robots, I’ve often wondered what a robotopia would look like. Guess I’ll finally have my answer.
