505 Games Announce They Are Publsihing Deep Black, Releasing It Q1 2011 On The Xbox 360 And Playstation 3
505 Games have announced that they are publishing Biart Studio LLC's Deep Black. The game is currently set to come out in Q1 2011 on both the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360. Deep Black is set under water and combines action gameplay with an immersive story line of Espionage, Bio-Terror, and Science Fiction.
505 Games reveal that most of the game takes place under water, meaning gamers will have to learn new skills as they fight enemies and infiltrate bases whilst using weapons and items designed to be used underwater. As the game is set under water, Biart Studio have added realistic water physics to the game.
The Screenshots 505 Games have released show shooting under water. they also show that the main character has a suit, not too dissimilar to Isaac Clark's in Dead Space, with small jets to help the character manoeuvre. the enemies in the screenshots are robots, of different sizes, and the fighting is taking place in both a corridor style room and what appears to be a large warehouse.
