Description:

Flying Wild Hog Announces Hard Reset, a Dark Sci-Fi Shooter for PC

Polish Studio Comprised of Painkiller, Bulletstorm and Witcher 2 Vets Announces its Atmospheric and Action-Packed Cyberpunk Debut


Warsaw, Poland – July 13. Flying Wild Hog announced its debut game, the dark sci-fi first-person shooter, Hard Reset. The PC-exclusive title transports players to a haunting, dystopian future, with humanity on the verge of extinction, confined to its last standing city and under constant threat from the robotic hordes that aim to annihilate mankind. Hard Reset is scheduled for release in September 2011.


In the only remaining human city of Bezoar, Major Fletcher, an Army Combat Veteran and soldier of the CLN, is dragged into a conflict between two of mankind's greatest enemies. He is to discover that nothing is what it seems to be.


Hard Reset may be Flying Wild Hog's debut title, but the 35-person studio is comprised of veterans of Warsaw's bustling development scene, with past experience at such renowned developers as People Can Fly, CD Projekt RED and City Interactive, where they worked on acclaimed games like Bulletstorm, Painkiller, The Witcher 2, Sniper and more. Hard Reset is built upon the studio's own Road Hog technology, which delivers stunning visuals that bring the game's incredible atmosphere to life.


Given the game's rapidly approaching release date, expect much more information and footage of Hard Reset in the coming weeks and months. In the meantime, visithttp://hardresetgame.comand follow the game's progress on Twitter and Facebook.

Not under Epic? Yup, this will be amazing.

Epic messed up Bulletstorm with forcing People Can Fly to develop on the console.

September of this year, built on a proprietary engine?! Must have already been in development for awhile, or it's episodic, or something.

I hope this becomes a PC-only series, need more of those.

If they make a sequel call it BIOS UPDATE :P

I'm scared it might do poorly cause it only has been mention 2 months away from release hopefully they get trailers and stuff to get people hyped and spread the word.

It's still very awesome game though. You just need to do some tweaking to take care of all the console leftovers like mouse smoothing, auto-aim, FOV, ect... At it's core it's a very polished shooter with amazing mechanics

Yeah, but I think in the end it fell short of what it could have been. The level's felt too linear, there could have been more open spaces and multiple paths through stuff, and the PC version was a major after thought.

After Painkiller I thought we were going to get even more fast-paced arcady action. While we got a bunch of it, it was still trying to be to much like a modern shooter and not enough arcade. Taking cover broke the flow of the gameplay, especially when it's all about massive combos of death and destruction.

Impressive but it looks console-ish with large hud, reticule and low fov. I bet they do like The Witcher 2 and release this a several months later on console.

Let's be fair, even with PC exclusives people have been jacking the FoV up way beyond what the developer originally intended.

I really liked Bulletstorm, hope this is even better.
