Supertrick Games, the studio behind Deathverse: Let It Die and LET IT DIE, are currently in the process of remaking Deathverse into a completely new third game that combines the best elements of both games, director Hideyuki Shin said in a developer diary released today. “We’re remaking Deathverse currently, and development is coming along nicely,” Shin said. “We are making good progress.” Shin continued, “So in the past we released LET IT DIE and Deathverse.
This time, we’re aiming to make a game that will please both fans of LET IT DIE and Deathverse.” Asked whether this new title will be “some half-hearted game” meant to please fans of either game, Shin said, “No, it’s not.” Shin elaborated, “To be specific, with Deathverse, we created a game centered around player-versus-player, but there were a lot of things we felt could be improved.
After considering those, we decided to make a game that, like LET IT DIE, has a clear gameplay loop you repeat many times, but also lets you fight against other players.
We’re trying to take the fun parts from both games to make something new. “In short, it’ll be a roguelike exploration game featuring both co-op and player-versus-player. “It’ll be taking the good parts from LET IT DIE.
Actually, more accurately it’ll be using LET IT DIE as a base to build on.” Asked whether that means this is LET IT DIE 2, Shin said it is not.
