What's Happening?
Behaviour Interactive, known for developing 'Dead by Daylight', is working on a new installment in the Serious Sam franchise, titled 'Serious Sam: Shatterverse'. This game is being published by Devolver Digital and was announced during the Xbox Partner
Showcase. Unlike previous games in the series, 'Shatterverse' is a cooperative first-person shooter where players, as a group of Sams from alternate dimensions, navigate shifting universes to repair the 'Shatterverse'. The game promises high-adrenaline combat, a mix of classic and new weapons, and procedurally generated runs across various arenas. It is set to launch later this year on Xbox Series, PS5, and PC.
