After plenty of speculation, much of which pointed towards a new driving game, SEGA has announced that the new Bizarre Creations title will be a third-person action shooter titled The Club. According to SEGA we can expect a game that will “redefine and refresh the mechanics” of the genre, focussing on addictive gameplay and a relentless pace, apparently never before seen in a video game.
In what is as described as a kill or be killed game, you are unwillingly entered into The Club, a highly illegal underground operation. Once you’re in there’s no getting out, so you must kill in order to survive. A host of high-powered weaponry will be at your disposal as you are forced to take part in the game at locations all over the world.
“The Club is the most exciting game I have seen in ages. It’s one of those titles, even at this stage in development, which I cannot put down – it will be huge.” commented Matt Woodley, Creative Director of SEGA.
“Here at Bizarre Creations we feel The Club brings the pillars of classic SEGA gameplay bang up to date for the next generation of hardware, gaming and gamers,” commented Martyn Chudley, Managing Director, Bizarre Creations Ltd. “We are truly excited by the prospects of this game and of our partnership with SEGA.“
The Club is sounding like an underground version of The Running Man, and I’m sure will kick up quite a stir given the nature of the violence. The game is to be shown behind closed doors at E3, and is scheduled for release on next-gen platforms in 2007.
