Over the weekend, the online game trade showcased scores of latest titles popping out within the close to (and sometimes not so close to) future as a part of a collection of shows known as the Summer season Video games Fest. And whereas it was thrilling to see what’s subsequent in video games, one Behemoth-fueled second stood out as particularly cool for us metalheads, too.
In the course of the official Geoff Keighley-hosted Summer season Video games Fest showcase, developer Chilly Symmetry revealed the insanely badass-looking Souls-like Mortal Shell II. As you possibly can see within the trailer under, it’s darkish, it’s violent, and in the event you’ve ever performed that kind of recreation, you understand it’s fully unforgiving. And whereas the visuals have been cool, it was the trailer’s soundtrack that instantly stood out, because it featured Behemoth’s “Ben Sahar” from The Satanist.
Steel music simply suits this sort of recreation completely, so it made sense to listen to Behemoth because the soundtrack for the trailer. And I wouldn’t be shocked if the sport featured steel all through, as its predecessor Mortal Shell featured an replace that allowed you to pick another soundtrack from Greek black steel outfit Rotting Christ.
