Let it be said that we could still very well be a few years away from seeingSIRENgrace the shelves.
What Is SIREN?
Therell be third-person combat, open world exploration, and even a full-fledged character customization suite to boot.
So, evidently more than your bog-standard mermaid sim.
Sounds cool, right?
Has it been done before?
No, not even close.
Go google mermaid video game right now and stare in bewilderment at the thin results.
Theyve got a point, to be fair.
Well played, guys.
Just whoarethe Merfolk, and how do you tie in with the legendary species?
As for what this ancient darkness is is still very much anybodys guess.
Gameplay
SIRENis an open world dark-fantasy RPG with a Souls-like twist.
The gaming world NEEDS its first underwater dark-fantasy.
It’s way overdue.
And a pretty in-depth one, at that.
But dont let us spoil the goods for you.
Fingers crossed the final product will look as sleek as its preview!
And as far as Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S versions go, well, who knows.
Its early days yet, so there arent any special editions to get ahold of.
Until then, feel free to join us in scouring the web for the closest mermaid-centric alternative.
Not as easy as it looks, is it?
So, whats your take?
