Damnation is a shooter at heart, which, if the screenshots are anything to go by, is heavily influenced by Gears of War. And the Wild West, by the look of it. In addition, Codemasters have dubbed the game a 'shooter gone vertical', stemming from the presence of all sorts of elaborate acrobatic stunt work involved on behalf of the player.
Vehicles make an appearance to the surprise of no one, with the two mentioned at this early stage including oversize motorbikes and great big hulking tanks, which will no doubt help in killing all sorts of bad guys.
The apparently 'epic and in-depth story' will focus on Rourke, who we imagine will be the character players control most of the time. Players and humanity face off against an, erm, arms dealer, hell bent on ruling the world and so on.
Oh, did we mention there's going to be a multiplayer mode? Well, there is. We'd bet on co-op play, too.
Developing the game is Blue Omega. This one is currently slated for a release around Christmas time. You can find the first screenshots in the media panel. It looks a bit tasty if you ask us.
