Exclusive for Xbox One from Insomniac Games.

IGN

Quote:


	Insomniac's latest game is Sunset Overdrive, and it's coming exclusively to Xbox One. Insomniac CEO Ted Price describes the game as a stylized open-world shooter, where the experience can change every day. Price mentioned weapons and challenges would be updated "constantly" through Xbox One's cloud.

I love what Insomniac does, so I'm sure this game will also be fantastic. It looks fun. Bright and vivid.

I hope it's a good game and it sells well.

Has a borderlands kinda style.

The game actually reminds me about Jet Set Radio alittle bit, but seem like the game could turnout to be pretty fun.

Looks fun, I'll be getting a Xbone at some point. Probably a Halo 5 bundle later next year.

Not much, but a few details from a live Q&A stream:

Open-world and third-person.
Resistance 3 leads heading the project. Wanted to do something more colorful, stylized, and fun.
Combining skilled combat and lots of traversal (as seen in the trailer).
City is free-roaming and the traversal is skill based too; something more a long the lines of the Ratchet games than say Assassin's Creed and Uncharted where things are a bit more automated.
Customization a big part of the game. You can choose Male or Female.
There will be single player, but they believe you will want to be connected for the updates. Not using the "Cloud" as much as others, mostly just for being able to update the game quickly. They said their update schedule will be very aggressive. There will also be ways to provide feedback directly from within the game.
Why exclusive to Xbox One? Xbox One has allowed them to do some things with their game design and the intended outreach to players simply wouldn't be possible on this generation of hardware. Microsoft is also a big believer in the vision behind Sunset Overdrive. Up front Insomniac expressed some of their concerns and really wanted to make a very stylized game and a lot of publishers get cold feet with that, but Microsoft was very supporting. Another big reason is they get to own the IP.

Sounds like a buy to me. Now I just have to decide if I want my first game to be this, or Dead Rising 3.

It's not coming at launch is it?
