Bear Games has unveiled “Comix Zero,” a new genre-bending game that combines Metroidvania exploration with elements inspired by dark fantasy comic books. The debut gameplay trailer showcases a unique interactive comic book experience where each death rewrites the narrative, offering players a fresh perspective on story progression.
Game overview
In “Comix Zero,” players take on the role of an immortal hero navigating through a world that resembles a graphic novel. Players jump between panels and break through page borders to explore an open world with no traditional gated progression. The game blends Metroidvania gameplay mechanics with Elden Ring-inspired challenges, emphasizing skill and determination over specific abilities.
Narrative twist
One of the most intriguing aspects of “Comix Zero” is its narrative twist: every time players die, they lose a piece of their memory. This loss not only affects the protagonist’s interactions but also changes character relationships and game outcomes, offering multiple possible endings based on player choices and deaths.
Visual style and gameplay
The game’s design draws inspiration from 1995’s classic “Comix Zone,” laying out its world as a graphic novel where players move across panels and through page borders. The gameplay trailer provides a glimpse into the brutal yet beautiful world of Comix Zero, showcasing an interactive comic book concept with a wisecracking protagonist.
“Comix Zero” is set to release on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S platforms, though the exact release date has not been disclosed.
