Nixxes is working directly with the team at Housemarque to refine the game’s art and gameplay. Meanwhile, PlayStation Studios Creative Arts is handling the music and sound. Adding to the impressive audio experience is composer Sam Slater, a Grammy Award winner known for his work on projects like *Chernobyl*, *Joker*, and *Mandy*, among others.
So, good news for me and other gamers – the sequel is definitely being built in Unreal Engine 5, which isn’t a huge shock considering the first *Returnal* used Unreal Engine 4. They’re aiming for a smooth 60 FPS on the PS5, but they’ve said it’s still early days, so expect some tweaks, fixes, and improvements as they keep working on it. The gameplay trailer only showed off *one* of the many areas we’ll be exploring, and I’m excited to learn I’ll be using both Soltari weapons – like the Phosphorous Shotgun – *and* some seriously cool Carcosan tech to take down enemies!
Fox Hunt in Metal Gear Online lets up to 12 players compete in teams of two. There are three different maps and two ways to play. The goal is to avoid being hunted by other teams, and the All-Terrain Camo suit can help with that. You can use it at the beginning of a match to hide in the environment and either sneak around or set up surprise attacks.
