For those that don’t know, EA’s Visceral Studioes, the guys behind Dead Space and Dante’s Inferno, has begun working on a game based on none other than a serial killer. One of the most famous ones at that; Jack the Ripper. Though it hasn’t been confirmed or even announced yet.
The game asks the question of what if Ripper wasn’t a psycopath, but in fact a force of good? What if Jack the Ripper was killing people to save the lives of others?
According to hidden sources over on Destructoid, that’s the experience we’ll be given in The Ripper. Jack will be a supernatural slayer of demons, vampires and other evil monsters. According to Destructoid, the demons aren’t of your average run-of-the-mill variety, but a cross between the monsters of Dead Space and Dante’s Inferno. Jack will come equipped with an assortment of over-the-top weapons, as well as a special ability to slown down time. As if that hasn’t been done to death already. Pun intended.
A guy killing zombies with over the top weaponry in a old Victorian style setting. Why am I suddenly reminded of the Van Helsing movie?
