Not content with having announced the tantalizing prospect of revisiting Resident Evil Village in virtual reality, The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners – Chapter 2 Retribution has therefore been confirmed on the PS5 headset for a release in 2023, while players PS VR, PC VR and Meta Quest 2 will be able to return to New Orleans at the end of 2022 if all goes well.
Direct sequel to the original game, Compensation features a new campaign, new areas to explore, new weapons and tools. “The physics-based combat and the wide variety of weapons available are among the strengths of Saints & Sinners and this chapter 2 intends to take the brutality of the confrontations up a notch.“, comments Alexander Eden of Skydance Interactive on the PlayStation Blog. The chainsaw has undoubtedly already gained many followers, but the less discreet players will also find a submachine gun and a sawed-off shotgun. It must be said that in addition to the herds of the undead, a mysterious ax killer sets out to smash the survivors of New Orleans.
A city that we can also now explore at night as part of riskier expeditions but also potentially richer in rewards. “The darkness will allow you to hide more easily and you will therefore have every interest in being discreet so as not to be detected by walkers. You can even steer them away from your destination by luring them somewhere else with flares. Some items, such as survival kits abandoned by their owners in a last attempt to escape, can only be found at night“, we are told.
