Strategy Informer: NecroVisioN Preview

Strategy Informer writes: "Aside from having a name worthy of a 1980's thrash metal band, NecroVisioN is a mysterious title. Developed by the guys who worked on Painkiller for the PC, it brings forth a setting virtually untouched by gaming. World War I is in full swing and it's up to you to take control of American grunt Simon Bukner. There have been countless WWII shooters, but never one that captures the horror of heavy shelling and muddy trenches of The Great War like NecroVisioN. We've been given some playable code (ahead of the game's 20th February release date), so don the tin helmet, pick up your rifle and prepare to go over the top."

Didn't People Can Fly make Painkiller?

EDIT: Aaaahhhhh, gotcha now. SOME of the team. Well at least Epic buying People Can Fly wasn't the death of the company's style after all.

It's actually developed by Farm 51.

Yea it's made by some of the members who contributed to Painkiller. They had substantial input on PK. I think NecroVisioN is their first full game, rather than just creative jobs.

Necrovision is awesome, especially if you're a fan of the Painkiller series and made with most of the same key members of the first one. Never really considered it 'indie'.
Can't wait to play 'Lost Company.

Still, in a turn of fortune, Farm 51 are making Painkiller Hell and Damnation.
