George Kitchen has released a "First Look" trailer for Dreams of Saturn 2.0, a major update and expansion for his initial version of his game from last Christmas which made waves across the community, and it looks jaw-droppingly stunning!
It adds a ton of content, in particular a whole new harbor location which was not present in the original, and allows the whole game to be played with a third-person view of Ryo.
Watch the amazing trailer below:
There is so much packed into just this short trailer! Just a few of the many humorous touches and carefully-choreographed scenes to be seen in this extravaganza of brand-new content:
- A tiny new hero? Ryo's cockroach takes part in the adventure.
- Even from this brief preview, the beautifully-rendered sets and landscapes look incredible: from the sky, object lighting and shadows through the detailed individual character animations and facial expressions.
- Ryo is now rendered in third person, bringing it even closer to the feel of the original game.
- A brand new "ride to the harbor" mini-game has been implemented
- In one QTE interaction the player controls Guizhang.
- Ryo traverses areas that were not accessible in the first Shenmue game, running across the rooftop of buildings and even ascending the structure of the gantry crane to operate it.
- An impressive missile launch from a submarine?!
- Does Santa Maeno save the day?
- A homage to Streets of Rage 2
- A sequence featuring Segata Sanshiro.
According to creator George Kitchen, DOS 2 consists of two separate stories (the original story and the new one). Both will be accessible from the main menu.
The release date is planned for 19th December, 2024.
Update: the release date will now be 21st December.
It is hard to believe this is a fan-made game, let alone one created by a single person. What a treat this promises to be!
