Move away, Keanu Reeves. We’ve got a new celebrity starring in video games. Will Smith is now starring in a brand new open-world zombie RPG. Now, one can just say this is just the spinoff of his 2007 zombie movie, I Am Legend. However, it is a bit different. The zombie part is still there, though.
Made by Lightspeed Studios, Undawn is an upcoming free-to-play open-world survival RPG for mobile and PC devices that will be released in June. Smith plays as the ‘legendary survivor’ Trey Jones that will guide the players in the world of Undawn. He will be showing how players can face off against different factions of the world– Clowns, Eagles, Night Owls, and Reivers, all in the name of territory, safety, and supplies.
Players will be encouraged to explore an expansive open world, filled with plains, mines, deserts, swamps, cities, and more unique ecosystems and dangers. The game states that players will need to “brave rain, heat, snow, and storms while monitoring their character’s health and well-being to stay alive against overwhelming odds.” Learn more about Undawn here.
