The rumours are true, Sunset Overdrive is out now on PC. The much-loved open-world playground of post-apocalyptic possibilities had, until today, only been available on Xbox. Now you can vault, grind, and wall-run through this colourful adventure on your PC.
Success on Xbox, success on PC…
Sunset Overdrive, developed by Insomniac Games, was very positively received on Xbox when it was released back in 2014. The single-player campaign was awarded ‘Best Xbox One Game of 2014’ by IGN and rated 9 out of 10 by Polygon. Eurogamer even described it as ‘a breath of fresh air’. A game that was so hugely successful on Xbox will surely be just as good, if not better, when we get to play it on PC.
So what’s it about?
Enter an exciting post-apocalyptic world devastated by FizzCo’s new energy drink, OverCharge Delirium XT. The year is 2027 and every person who has sipped this irresistible drink has turned into toxic mutants. As one of the survivors of Sunset City, you now have to band together with the other survivors to try and escape these mutant forms. This is your chance to put your old boring world behind you and transform this open-world into your very own tactical playground. With no more dull job and horrible boss, you have the chance to grind, vault and wall-run across the city while using devastating, unconventional arsenal. Unlike traditional shooter games, Sunset Driver will take you on a unique and explosive adventure.
Gameplay features
To accompany this fresh take on open-world adventure is a catchy soundtrack and a lengthy, entertaining campaign. Throughout your journey in this ‘awesompocalypse’, you’ll have a whole host of unique weapons and customizable special abilities at your disposal as you take down various mutants such as Herkers and Blowers, as well as FizzCo’s own high-tech bots. On top of this, you will have to be prepared to deal with other survivors who are going to try and take what’s yours. The game will also feature two bonus expansions; Mystery of Mooil Rig and Dawn of the Rise of the Fallen Machines.
