E3 2014: ‘The Order: 1886’ Goes Super Supernatural!

Briefly: Sony revealed a sexy new trailer for The Order: 1886 at last night’s press conference, and with it we finally see just what’s got The Order so riled up.

Lycans.

Here’s what Ready At Dawn CEO Ru Weerasuriya had to say about the reveal:

Exactly a year ago, we launched our new IP with a trailer that introduced The Order and its Knights. As we revealed more about the game in the months that followed, we left one questioned unanswered. Who is the enemy hidden in the fog?

 

The Half-Breeds are many, its different species having evolved in their own rights, becoming a formidable and deadly threat to humanity’s dominance. One species in particular has taken dominion over the lands of Northern Europe and has threatened the rule of man for centuries. Lycan was the name given by humans to the species of Half-Breeds that acquired certain lupine and feline traits. Upon seeing them, people equated their looks to the myth and legends of werewolves that had been retold from generation to generation.

 

What the Lycans lack in numbers, they make up in sheer strength and agility, and have proven to be some of the deadliest foes The Order has ever faced. In human form, they remain impossible to identify and as such, they hide in plain sight amongst the populace. With both Lycans and the Rebellion threatening the city of London, The Order must face enemies on all fronts.

The game looks gorgeous, and I really can’t wait to see more. Take a look at the order below, and let us know what you think!
