Fear The Wolves Game Details
Fear The Wolves looks is a multiplayer survival shooting game. The game is set in the unforgiving environment of the nuclear wastelands of the city of Chernobyl, Russia. The environment looks dangerous and derelict. Players dive in and then fight to survive. Some interesting things about Fear The Wolves is that it has an unpredictable weather system. Players will not only battle each other, but will also face the elements in the cold and ruined landscape. The game has a 100 player battle royale mode, and it will be interesting to see how matches pan out. The game itself looks good. The graphics are great, vehicles could be used and much more.
The Developer
Vostok Games, as GSC Game World, had previously developed the famed and beloved S.T.A.L.K.E.R series. This explains the setting of the game, as the S.T.A.L.K.E.R games were also set in and around Pripyat and Chernobyl. Vostok definitely has experience developing First Person Shooters, but this is their first time working on a battle royale game. Lets hope Fear The Wolves is just as good as Vostok’s earlier games.
