- Urban Legend Hunters 2: Double, is Playism’s latest release, coming soon
- It sees you take on the role of an outsider to a case of a missing person
- Discover 3D environments using AR, and FMV actors superimposed over it
As someone who’s been around the gaming block more times than I care to remember, I must admit that FMV games have always held a special place in my heart, harking back to the days of Laserdisc and CD-ROM adventures. So when Urban Legend Hunters 2: Double came across my radar, I was instantly intrigued.
The realm of Full-Motion Video (FMV) games, characterized by real-life footage instead of graphics, remains relatively uncommon in today’s gaming landscape. Popular during the 90s, FMV games have moved more towards the less sophisticated and entertaining side. However, the upcoming release “Urban Legend Hunters 2: Double” might attempt to bring it back into the limelight. While it may not be the game to revolutionize the genre, it’s likely to offer an enjoyable experience nonetheless.
In Urban Legend Hunters 2: Double, you assume the part of an outsider in the enigma surrounding Chris, a YouTuber who specializes in urban legends and has mysteriously vanished. During your journey, you’ll encounter Rain, Shou, and Tangtang, individuals who assert themselves as members of Chris’ channel. As you delve deeper into the story, you’ll uncover the lore surrounding the doppelganger, or double, and learn that when two doubles meet, one will replace the other without detection.
In “Urban Legends 2,” you’ll encounter a blend of Full Motion Video (FMV) and Augmented Reality (AR) investigation, where your smartphone camera serves as your navigation tool within 3D environments for your investigations. What sets it apart is that the FMV scenes are superimposed directly onto the real-world environment you’re exploring. It’s certainly strange but undeniably creative!
Those wacky cryptids
While Urban Legends 2 has a captivating idea and execution, it might not live up to the anticipation for a deeply layered psychological thriller.
Are you considering this as something you truly desire? I find the charm in Full Motion Video (FMV) lies in its cheesiness, which somehow complements horror elements. Given that, even though we don’t have a precise release date yet, only knowing it will be coming out this winter, I believe it’s worth keeping an eye on.
In the interim, although mobile might not seem like a match for horror, it actually isn’t so. If you’re skeptical, why don’t you explore our compilation of the 25 top-notch horror games for Android instead?
