PSU: Wardevil gets a new look - First image

PSU writes:

" Developed by the Digi-Guys, Wardevil is a new 3rd person action/sci-fi title exclusively for the PlayStation 3.

Since its last showing, the team at Digi-Guys have been pretty quiet on the game's advancements. We know the game uses a new and sophisticated gaming engine called RTE1080 (real time engine) which allows for 1080p resolution at 60fps. Digi-Guys have stated that they hope to create a visual style that surpasses the look and feel of pre-rendered FMV sequences.

Here is the first look at Wardevil Unleash the Beast Within"

[INehalemEXI]

A helmet huh o0 I see.

[jams_shop]

He used to look like Raiden, not anymore

[Graphics by ATi]

Wow....1080p60 for an action title that's as detailed as that?

Dang! Go PS3!

[zambrota]

I have a feeling SONY will purchase WARDEVIL devs

My manager at BABEL GAMES fainted after seeing the new footage of War Devil in LOndon

He was saying that it looks like an UPGRADED Mass Effect but is extremely fast paced.

GUYS i will be getting a copy of WARDEVIL in MARCH,2008

as soon as i get it i will post some gameplay videos HERE AT N4G

although i am not supposed to do this but seeing my BOSS's excitement i think WARDEVIL might turn out to be ONE OF THE BIGGEST GAMES of 2008.

The version that my BOSS saw ran at 1080p @ 60fps without ANY LAG

:)

[QuackPot]

What is it with these British(Ninja Theory & Digi-guys) with their Cine graphics.

Yup, Digi will deliver on gameplay, I have no doubt now.

But here's hoping that Digi have learned completely from others that went before them -in particular Ninja Theory - to ensure that the gameplay is faultless, AI challenging, is long and has significant replay value(ie MP, Coop, online).

[sonarus]

whether sony ends up purchasing them or not this will stay exclusive cus sony already paid for the game and i still honestly dnt believe 360 can achieve 1080p at 60fps. Not sure when this game is coming out but i like the new look better the hair was gay. Just another ps3 game scheduled for 2008 could slip to 2009 who knows but jst one of those exclusives sitting there. Sometimes i stare at my 360 and wonder why are you still here. Oh yea ninja gaiden

[timmyp53]

I hope it stays with the other design because that helmet design isn't kool like the grey hair dude.

[Graphics by ATi]

That isn't concept art. That's an in-engine shot.

[gonzopia]

Whatever it is - that image has me excited about this game. I'm a big sci-fi fan, and I'm always looking for new and interesting sci-fi ideas in gaming, and this shot has me craving more. I haven't seen or played anything in this "series" previous, but here's hoping for great things.

[Violater]

Lets not speculate whether it is real time or not people please.
Let's just enjoy the fact that the game is still in development.

[NoUseMerc]

That screenshot is using in-game assets and is near the what they are having the game look like in realtime

[mullet]

Are you f*cking kidding me? HOLY CRAP!

[MK_Red]

Cool find and image. I remember seeing a tech demo of this long ago when first tech demos of Projet Offset were out and thought these two games look beyond great and next-gen.

Love the new look of main character. Didn't like the old design. It's exact opposite of Dark Sector where the character had maks and armor at first but devs later removed the mask and made him more human.

[xionpunk]

Project Offset! I'd almost forgotten about it. We need new info on that game quick. Hoping for a release this year.

[MK_Red]

True. We definitly need some Project Offset info soon. That game has some seriousl potential. Same goes for this one though neither seem to be 2008 games :(

[THC CELL]

i cant wait to see what the game play to this game is
i bet its awesome

[QuackPot]

..would be a waste to spend so much on the graphics and mess up the gameplay. Those british guys and gals at Digi won't mess this up.

I guessing the gameplay will rock.

[cellypower]

I want more details on this game sony! I hope its action/rpg type game.

[vloeistof]

looks interesting

[THE_JUDGE]

biggest games still shrouded in mystery. Digi and Sony should tell us more about KZ2 and Wardevil. I can't wait to hear and see more. Bring it on!

[fenderputty]

I really want to see something on this game and KZ2 for GDC. There's a lot I want to know. Patience has never been one of my greatest virtues.

[ThaGeNeCySt]

I like this character design better than the old grey haired one.

[SoulReaper]

same i liked too..i hope war devil will be at this GDC..

[Darkiewonder]

Is there one where i can see without the compression put onto it?

EDIT: Nevermind. Found a link from their site:

http://www.psu.com/media/wa...

It's good enough I guess ;3

[MK_Red]

Awesome, thanks for the link. I tried clicking on PSU's image but it still wans't the full size.
Thanks again and bubbles for you :)

[Graphics by ATi]

WOW thanks for that image. That makes it even MORE impressive!

WOOHOO! I am loving my PS3 more and more every day!

[Panthers]

Looks like Cobra Commander.

[SoulReaper]

if the game is real time its going to blow my mind away..

[actas123]

Holy God

[Iamback]

It does says anywhere that it is in game so how do you guys know?

[gonzopia]

That looks HAWT. Too bad it's (allegedly) single player only, cuz that screams "wicked multiplayer" to me.

[stuntman_mike]

ive been following this game for a while now, there was supposed to be in game footage released before christmas which never happend hope they show some gameplay at gdc.

[mighty_douche]

Just another reason to buy a PS3.

[DEADEND]

The game looks amazing, I just hope their not only focusing on the graphic and that they will have a very solid game play as well. I've notice that too many developers are not putting enough time into the game play for their game's and that's hurting them a lot. Anyway I know if Sony stays on top of them and makes sure that everything is alright then the game will turn out to be a AAA title. I hope this game is released this year.

[Iron Man 2]

Wow does this game look amazing,I can't wait,the character looks so much better now than he did before!;)

[meepmoopmeep]

then it looks very promising... i hope the story is really well plotted because i'm really into sci-fi as well and i'm glad there's more non-shooter games coming out where it belongs on a playstation

[novaIS350]

If you want to see a difference between real time and concept art check out the digi guys website. Just a heads up, everything we've seen so far has been real time.

http://www.wardevil.com/

[Wraith001]

when i frist saw this in a tech demo i was pritty excited and sad at the same time as i only owned a 360 then.

Now i own a PS3, i am ubber wanting this game! Even if i have to use my whole 40gig for an install.

I hope to hear more on this at GDC.

[Expy]

If this is an in-engine shot then dannnggg... The rock texture looks eerily realistic. Not to mention the overall atmosphere. I really can't wait to see what this engine can really fork out on the Playstation 3 hardware.

[mighty_douche]

These shoots are according to the offical site, using 100% in-game assets.

They where posted on teamxbox.com way back in August 10th 2005! When i believe this game was going to be a 360 exclusive.

EDIT: for some reason i can attach images to my comment (sorry) but ill provide the link here http://screenshots.teamxbox...

the final 3 are concept, the rest are as i explained above.

remember 2005!!

EDIT2: not sure about the disagree? i was just trying to help!

[zambrota]

The demo footage shown before ran on PS3 only

This is right from WARDEVIL's website.

X360 guys assumed WRONGLY that WARDEVIL was being bult for x360 as well.

Wardevil runs at 1080P NATIVE at 60 FPS( only possible on ps3)

BTW here is the scrrenshot from WARDEVIL's official website claiming that it JUST ran on PS3

****i am having problems uploading the image. BUT you could go to www.wardevil.com .CLICK on NEWS and THEN ENIGMA to have the official confirmation that Wardevil ran first time on PS3 in 2006 and ONLY on ps3

[zambrota]

that the game was EVER BUILT ONLY ON and for PS3

http://www.freeimagehost.eu...

sorry for the DELAY

[kingboy]

i hope his not gonna be wearing that helmet through out the whole game nevertheless can`t wait to see this baby in action

[name]

This looks amazing. Maybe playstation has found it's replacement for Devil May Cry ;)

[Ghoul]

I still vey eager to see where this is heading in the future the engine shots look very promising.

[BlackIceJoe]

Looks good I can't wait to see what Digi-Guys can do next.

[BlackIceJoe]

I also would like to add may be this screen-shot is a way to tell people Digi guys will be at GDC. At least I hope so. Having more info on Wardevil come out of GDC would be great.

[QuackPot]

if you check out the 2005 RTE1080 Teaser revealed and Trailer

And it's now two years on they they would have improved the engine in leaps and bounds.

Bring on Wardevil. A sure hit.

[celticlonewolf]

But this was one of the games that sold me on the ps3(not a fan of mgs or all that much for ff) This game looks really good though, pitty I'll have to wait so long to get it:(.

[Salvadore]

I don't know what it is, but it looks awesome.

[J@D]

Looking good. I'm glad of the character model and also look good as always... I can't wait for more info.

[Cartesian3D]

it cant be like that.. o_O

just make the game 80% like that in 1080p 60FPS , then it will be the best looking game ever..

[QuackPot]

With Digis background in graphics this game should set a benchmark.

Fingers crossed that they can deliver on gameplay. I'm confident they will.

Wardevil will be a major hit

... and Digi-guys will join the ranks of 1st Class developers.

BTW: A number of the environments remind me of Halo. Looks like some developers have been learning: copy, modify, adapt, improve. Now I can only dream that Digi turns it into a shooter/Action/RPG....but not likely.

[fopums]

sweet a helmet lol, I know wardevil is beautiful, but some actual gameplay vids would be nice..... how long has this been in development?

[mighty_douche]

Well they released great looking screen's way back in 2005, so a while. I guess building the Engine burned up a lot of time.

[TH3 GAM3]

Wardevil always been on my most anticipated list, now we going to see more information about it.

[Lord_Ash]

Ok so this game toke my breath when I saw their last video some 5 months ago (I think) but now WTH, if the game runs smoothly like this, then Naughty Dog has allot of work to do just to compete with this.

You know what's even better, I read somewhere that they want to license this engine to any one once it's done, Imagine that.

[Dmack79]

could potentially be, to the PS3, what GOW was to PS2.

I'm starving for some gameplay.

[TheHater]

That game look sick. I it a muct, and I mean MUST have for me. I wonder when the hell it will come out.

[heyheyhey]

dang those fire effects look smokin' hot (sorry)

seriously if thats in-game than this game can look better than crysis

[Rattles]

cant wait for it in game cgi FTW!!! something the ps3 was built for.

[DFresh]

War Devil is looking really promising it's gonna be fire off the PS3.
Graphics already look insanely good.
Story should be just as good.
The only thing we need now is game play.
