Heaven Angel Posted August 16, 2017 Report Share Posted August 16, 2017 Quote Debut developer Imaginati has revealed Planet of the Apes: Last Frontier, a standalone cinematic adventure game set between the events of 2014’s Dawn of the Planet of the Apes and this year’s War for the Planet of the Apes. Published by the new games division of The Imaginarium - the performance capture studio run by Planet of the Apes lead actor Andy Serkis, who executive produces here - the game is even being developed on-site at the company’s historic Ealing Studios headquarters. Set around a year after Dawn, the game centres around a breakaway faction of apes who take refuge in the Rocky Mountains from the ongoing human-ape war, but are forced to descend into a human-owned valley as Winter draws in and food depletes. The story takes its cue from the films, aiming for a morally ambiguous take on the ensuing conflict, with no black and white decisions or clear heroes and villains. Players will take control of both humans and apes - who, because of the game’s standalone story and cast, can live or die based on your decisions - with multiple endings possible depending on their actions on both sides. So far, so familiar: but while the game’s focus on choice and consequence in a standalone licensed game is reminiscent of recent adventure games (see: Telltale’s entire oeuvre), the approach it takes is somewhat different. 1 More at IGN It will be released for PS4, Xbox One and PC this fall.

GameAnalyzer Posted November 4, 2017 Report Share Posted November 4, 2017 For that price the game is totally worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heaven Angel Posted November 4, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2017 Good price, but the game might be 2 to 3 hours long. I'll wait for console reviews and get it on PC when it's released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mohit9206 Posted November 25, 2017 Report Share Posted November 25, 2017 Quote Planet of the Apes: Last Frontier doesn't exactly explore these themes - in fact, it's careful to look for equivalence between ape and man - but it does inherit the surprisingly serious moral tone of the films, and this fits its simple survival storyline well. What an irony and a shame, then, that the person who is left dehumanised by this game - pushing buttons to no effect, thinking and responding to what's happening, but feeling ignored - is the player. http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2017-11-24-planet-of-the-apes-last-frontier-review Quote A glossy though ultimately shallow use of the Planet of the Apes license, Last Frontier stands as an acceptable use of Play Link technology but little else. +Extremely impressive production values +Fans of the movies will get a kick from it +Multiple endings and multiplayer mode provide extra value -Not much for veteran gamers to get stuck into -Potential of the license not fully explored -Much too short 6.5/10 http://www.psu.com/review/34707/planet-of-the-apes-last-frontier-review Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
