'Get Even' (ALL) Game Details Revealed, Delayed Until 2017 - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on Aug. 17, 2016 @ 2:34 p.m. PDT

Get Even is a psychological thriller that will have players questioning their perception of reality and justice.

When Cole Black awakes in an old abandoned asylum, his sole memory is the attempted rescue of a teenage girl with a bomb strapped to her chest. The rest of his memories are completely gone.

The route the player chooses to follow determines their personality as the game unfolds. The carefully crafted storyline mixes elements of thriller and horror with exploration.

As these personality traits are revealed, the merging of single-player and multiplayer elements tighten. When players embark on a single-player mission, others on the network can join the quest as enemies, so players never know whether their opponents are human or CPU-based. This suspense further heightens the player’s feeling of a threat.

Creating immersion through an unparalleled dive into 3D acoustics thanks to the support of the cutting-edge Auro-3D technology from Auro Technologies, Get Even challenges you to question your understanding of justice and reality. What is real? Your understanding of the past, is what will shape the outcome of your future. Help Black travel into the distressing and tortuous depths of his own mind, by facing the truth and answering two very simple questions: ‘Why was he there?’ and, ‘Who was the girl?

Similarly, the team has worked to provide advanced weaponry and technology that exceeds current capabilities but are not beyond the realm of real-world application. For instance, weapons that fire around corners play a large part in Get Even, allowing the user to shoot from a safe position. These weapons can be linked with the player’s in-game smart phone to not only add a sight functionality, but use apps to bolster attack options. Corner-shot weapons are fully customizable throughout the game.


“I’m extremely pleased to be working alongside The Farm 51 to bring this unconventional experience to our customers” says Samuel Gatté, Production & Product Support Senior Director, at Bandai Namco Entertainment Europe.  “Over the past 2 years, Bandai Namco Entertainment Europe and The Farm 51 have built a fruitful collaboration, from artistic vision to game mechanics. We always tried to find deeper meaning than traditional gaming syntax. In Get Even, the strong story and memorable characters really immerse the player in a very thin boundary between virtuality and reality. Hopefully we've created an experience that will be as meaningful as it is unforgettable.”

Wojciech Pazdur, Development Director at The Farm 51 confirms. “Get Even is the biggest title that has ever been produced in our studio – it features the deepest story and the most advanced technology our teams have ever worked on. Thanks to the support we are receiving from BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment Europe, we have now taken this up to the next level and polished every aspect of the game in ways that were not possible before. Today, we are extremely happy that we can finally show the new face of Get Even to both players and media, immersing them into a new experience and asking them to find out “What is real?”
