Ukrainian studio VG Entertainment announces Forest Reigns, a new first-person action shooter featuring a branching storyline.
“We have always enjoyed creating games where gameplay systems dictate everything, and player freedom directly impacts the narrative, delivering a unique gaming experience,” shared studio head Ruslan Didenko. “After many years of working on online games, we decided to return to our roots and develop Forest Reigns—a single-player FPS with a branching storyline, world exploration, survival mechanics, RPG elements, and, most importantly, an interactive environment! This is the boldest idea we have ever undertaken. With Forest Reigns, we aim to bring something new and fresh to the genre.”
The studio reveals that the events of Forest Reigns take place five years after a devastating pandemic that has nearly wiped out humanity. Players are transported to a transformed Paris, “where primal beauty intertwines with the deadly traps of a sentient forest.”
Survival in this world demands quick adaptability, as the forest constantly reacts to every player decision. The developers have incorporated intense FPS combat, survival crafting mechanics, and a non-linear narrative, combining these elements to deliver an immersive gaming experience. Players will explore the dark, distorted corners of a transformed metropolis, uncovering more secrets with each mission.
The studio highlighted several key features of Forest Reigns:
- The Forest: Friend or Foe? The forest isn’t just a backdrop but a sentient, living entity. If you attack it, it will retaliate. However, if you choose a cautious approach, the forest might aid you in battles against your enemies.
- Intense FPS Combat: Players will experience adrenaline-pumping shootouts, enjoy realistic weapon handling, and access a wide range of customizable gear. They can upgrade their arsenal and enhance combat effectiveness to adapt to the challenges of the world.
- Survival and Crafting: Resources are scarce, and danger lurks around every corner. “Be prepared for any challenge the forest throws at you, whether you choose stealth or loud shootouts,” say the game’s creators. Crafting, resource scavenging, and strategic planning will be essential for survival.
- Nonlinear Storyline: The narrative offers dozens of missions and four distinct factions for players to choose from. Each faction has its own unique vision for humanity’s future, and every decision players make will shape the outcome of the story.
The setting of Forest Reigns is a radically transformed Paris, reshaped by the wrath of nature. Players will encounter iconic landmarks of architecture, culture, and art, reimagined through the lens of apocalyptic forces. This blend of the familiar and the surreal creates a backdrop that is both fresh and evocative, setting the stage for an unforgettable adventure.
