Project: The Perceiverseems to lean closer toSekiroin terms of gameplay and story, seeing as how it takes place in a fantasy world featuring combat that relies heavily on blocking and parrying. The open world itself is as stunning as inGhost of Tsushima, with players witnessing swords clashing in ways that highlight the technical aspects of its gameplay, which could rival even themost iconic sword fights in video games.
As far as the story is concerned, the dialogue expresses conflicting beliefs in ideals between opposing forces with an emphasis on the metacontextual analysis of its story through this idea of “play.” Whether the events of its story exist as a fiction within the protagonist’s mind or if there is an extra layer of complexity to its world through the fantastical is to be determined, although the dialogue is certainly part of its mystery that can be intriguing to players. Other than the story, it is also to be determined if the gameplay will be more in line with thedifficulties of FromSoftware games, or if it will appeal more to a mainstream audience like whatGhost of Tsushimaproduced.
Project: The Perceiverisn’t the only game of its style that will be releasing in the near future, as the rumoredGhost of Tsushima 2and therecently revealedRise of the Roninare other PlayStation-developed games that could be sharing the spotlight. However, the complexity of its story and swordplay may allowProject: The Perceiverto stand out from other upcoming games in the same genre.
