The first gameplay for Evil West is here to show us just how crazy some of Evil West will flow out there
Evil West was a title that when it was first announced and highlighted, I was a bit skeptical. The name and premise put forth by Flying Wild Hog just felt like one of those out-there concepts that was leaning in on that to help get everyone excited. Now, we have the first gameplay for Evil West and I may have to eat some of those words and start diving deeper in. Going deeper now with the first full gameplay showing for the game that could have a whole new level of cult following on the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC in 2022.
If you have not jumped down to look at the new gameplay for Evil West already, what you will be able to see here is how the third-person view will try to keep us in the action while our hero brings down all of the horrors out there. Some of it through some fast melee combat and others through some fast gun slinging in the mix. The game is called Evil West, so that seems to track extremely well. All of which also gives off a fun little Darksiders vibe to it all. Given that we will be bringing down some of the forces of Hell and toppling ancient vampires out there, the links get a bit closer by the second. All of which looks to give us one more in the growing greats of the genre out there. Now I know I cannot wait for this one to come out for us.
