If Santa Monica is working on it, it'll at least be good. But I was hoping they'd do something that's not a fps zombie game*

*i'm guessing it's fps/tps

I was kinda hoping for something that would be a breath of fresh air. This is probably going to be another grimdark ultra-violent zombie shooting game that takes itself too seriously.

Giant disappointment if this is zombies. Totally sick of that shit.

The teaser is actually pretty cool

If it's like, Siren Shibito type zombie survival horror and not brainless shooting zombie style then I might be interested

Hope it's a new I.P

Maybe the video is metacommentary. Shooters take over the industry like a virus. The few proud JRPG fans among us must carry the studio and dump it far far away before it can infect more studios.
