This upcoming FPS had me at 'fully simulated centrifugal gravity space station level'
The devs behind Fortune's Run(opens in new tab), an upcoming shooter/immersive sim that looks like a grungier The Fifth Element and plays like Jedi Knight at 1.5x speed, just announced a July-September early access release window with a fly-through of one of its early levels. This "ridiculously huge, fully simulated centrifugal gravity space station(opens in new tab)" features a fully-modeled exterior set against the void of space, and strikes me as a fascinating departure from the game's demo level, Trouble at Club V'heni.

Set to more of the game's banger breakcore soundtrack, the trailer weaves in and out of hydroponic labs, long maintenance shafts, and enemy-infested living quarters. I've got my fingers crossed that, with all the detail put into the station's whirring, constantly spinning exterior, we might do a little bit of EVA in the inky black as part of this mission. Whatever the case, I'm just happy to finally see another arena for Fortune's Run's pulse pounding swordplay.
Some of Team Fortune's other posts on Twitter show off just what we'll be getting up to in this space station. This clip(opens in new tab) shows protagonist Mozah getting up in the guts of its hydroponics system, turning off a fire suppression system, slicing open a pipe full of fertilizer, and setting it alight to trigger an out-of-control fireball in the pressurized environment. Meanwhile, you'll have to hand-cut bulkheads with a blowtorch(opens in new tab), revealing hidden paths through the facility.
