11 New 'Dusk-12' Screens from Buka - The New FPS Launches This Year

Well known Russian developer Buka Entertainment has just released a bunch of new screens depicting what gamers will have to go through when playing their new FPS, Dusk-12, as a mutant. Buka is also responsible for action titles such as The Swarm, FPSs like The Hunt' and a crazy racer called Sledgehammer! The developer has recently announced its revamped corporate website. Dusk 12, however, is currently under development over at Orion Games.

The screens you will find below were released just after the successful presentation of Dusk-12 at this year's GC in Leipzig, Germany. The game's plot goes a little something like this, according to Buka:

Experiments to create a perfect soldier failed and a small peaceful town turned into the evil den. The city is now full of aggressive mutants and imperfect soldiers out of control. Mutation definitely doesn't make people look pretty! Inhabitants of the closed city are terrible monsters, and the new screenshots show them in all their ugliness and repulsiveness. For this, you should thank the mutagenic virus called DUSK-12 that changes nice and friendly citizens into the wild fiends. In addition to the genetic experiments, scientists tried to make an ideal combatant mechanically and created a powerful cyborg. And now you have to deal with all these unsympathetic creatures!

Basically, players will have to choose to incarnate two heroes: a soldier leading his squad, and a mutant who possesses powers beyond the human limits. Weapons will be used just like in usual shooters, but you will always give orders to your companions in squad mode or use the superpowers of the mutant! You will have both Deathmatch and Team Deathmatch to choose from, as far as game modes are concerned in multiplayer, along with a huge amount of different weapons and superpowers.

Key features of Dusk-12 include:

- Totally new graphic engine that uses to the limit the latest technology available for the PC platform

- Play alone or in squad mode as you control the mutated man or the soldier. Use your superpowers or give orders to your companions to aid you in the combat.

- Innovative physic system. Take everything you want, break hundreds of objects, use elements of the scenario as weapons.

- Several vehicles that you will be able to use for traveling through the scenario and transport your group.
Intense multiplayer mode up to 16 people. Choose between a soldier and a mutated human.

Check out the screens below and know that Buka and Orion Games have 2007 in mind for Dusk 12's release for the PC platform. Until one of the two companies makes a more detailed announcement, check out other headlines within our Games section.
