Blitz Games postpones Possession development
It’s been a very, very long time since we have received an update for Blitz Games‘ upcoming Possession game, which last made its presence known at 2005’s E3, and up to this point still seems to lack a publisher. With that said, we bring news of a status report Blitz wired to the PlayStation Universe (PSU) site:
Unfortunately we cannot give out any further information on Possession at the moment other than production has been halted for the time being. Blitz are busy with other titles at the moment but we will definitely make it quite clear to the public and to magazines, websites etc if and when we pick Possession back up.
The short version: Possession for the PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 is officially under hiatus until further notice. For first-time readers wondering what the game is all about, Possession is something we’d describe as a role reversal of the traditional zombie game (Resident Evil, Dead Rising, etc). Here, players are put in the role of “The Enslaver,” an intelligent zombie with the capability to create and control your own vast army of zombie minions.
The game features multiple units types that the player can command/control, along with a free-roam environment similar to games like GTA. Possession is reportedly running on the Endorphin (graphics) Engine, which will greatly enhance the way the game’s characters are expected to react to their corresponding environments.
Just keep posted in case Blitz releases more updates.
