NACON and Cyanide have released a brand-new extended gameplay trailer of their upcoming title Werewolf: The Apocalypse – Earthblood.

Along with the new trailer, the game’s director also provides insight into the game’s development and its roots in the World of Darkness.
If you are a fan of the World of Darkness, then you would already know that in this world supernatural beings roam hidden from human sight despite being in the same world. Check out the new extended gameplay trailer below before we jump into further details:
The official press release further details:
The biggest challenge for Cyanide was implementing all the mechanics for an action RPG: designing the combat systems, balancing the effects, working on different types of animations, and more… When the main character, Cahal, shifts to his Crinos form, players must feel like a bestial predator. Thus, a “stance” system was implemented so players can switch between agility and ferocity according to the situation.
The team went to considerable effort to create a visceral beat’em up game while staying faithful to the original tabletop roleplaying game. In Werewolf: The Apocalypse, the Garou are warriors of Gaia, the Mother Earth, and are fighting to save the planet from the Wyrm’s corruption. This aspect of the game is visible when the players explore environments like an overexploited forest, an arid desert or an offshore oil rig.
Werewolf: The Apocalypse – Earthblood is the first-ever action-RPG set in the World of Darkness. The game is mature, brutal, and complex where you step in the shoes of Cahal who is out for redemption. He is playing a critical role in the great war led by Garou against Endron, a global corporation whose activities are devastating the natural world. Pre-orders are now live and it comes with unique pre-order bonuses as well. Check them out below:
