    Description:
    A coy trailer reveals little of what we'll be up to in Fort Solis but the
    tone at least we can see is deeply creepy.

    FULL STORY ======================================================================

    The Summer Game Fest is in full swing now and weve just seen another game reveal, a sci-fi action thriller set on Mars that looks to be particularly creepy.

    The reveal trailer for Fort Solis keeps us very much in the dark, going more for the emotional impact of the game than giving us much detail about what well be doing in it. Set in a remote Martian mining station called Fort
    Solis, it looks like youll be swapping between control of two characters: medical officer Wyatt Taylor and maintenance engineer Jack Leary.

    See if you can make out whats going on from the trailer:

    After the games reveal, Summer Game Fest 's Geoff Keighley was joined on
    stage by actors Troy Baker and Roger Clark, the two key players in For Solis. Baker plays medical officer Taylor and Clark plays engineer Leary.

    While neither actor would get too deep into explaining what was happening in the game, Baker revealed that when the games director got in touch to recruit him for the project he explained that Fort Solis would be a tight thriller,
    we want it to feel like Dead Space meets Duncan Jones Moon. So expect weird, creeping sci-fi, maybe with a little body horror thrown in for good measure.

    You can watch the interview for yourself below:

    While the trailer didnt show much of the games action, it did reveal that
    Fort Solis is being built in Unreal Engine 5 and it looks absolutely
    gorgeous. The red planet is somewhere weve been to in a lot of games and its often a washed-out space, but in the trailer, those rich reds just give a sense of pulsing danger below the surface of every scene.

    Hopefully, well learn what its actually about before too long. Have a look at all the other upcoming games to whet your whistle for 2022.
