The Verge: Human Element on OUYA - New Studio. New Franchise. New Console.
Delving into bringing Human Element to OUYA, our prequel release strategy, and the future.
“We’re not limited to genre. We’re not limited to anything,” Bowling said. “We can be as creative as we want. Maybe episode one is focused on the fortification element of survival. We focus on finding a place, stocking it up, defending it, resource management, stuff like that. The next one might be much more focused on the human element of conversation, bartering with other players, assigning quests, going out and foraging for supplies, dealing with elements outside your safe zone — while having those elements from episode one of having your safe zone already fortified.”
We’ve announced that Human Element will be hitting consoles and PC in 2015, taking place 35 Years AFTER the zombie apocalypse. Your response, GIS ME IT NOW!
Which is why we’re excited to announce that a series of episodic content, allowing you to experience the world of Human Element a week, a month, a year; after the ‘event’, will be coming to the brand new video game console OUYA as it’s first exclusive 1st party title!
Did you miss the 4-page feature on Human Element from last month’s Game Informer? Good news! It’s now been posted online in its entirety!
Game Informer: Taking on the Human Element:
The universe is set on this whole premise of, “What is the greatest threat in a zombie apocalypse?” If you’re conditioned with the entire zombie culture it’s the infection, it’s the zombies. But in reality, they’re the walking dead. They’re dumb, slow, weak. They’re really not a physical threat to you in a lot of ways. Their greatest strength is the fear that they instill in us, the survivors. They lead us to do unreasonable things to survive. By that logic, the greatest strength in a zombie apocalypse is the human element. The other survivors who are smart enough, and strong enough to kill you and take what they want by force.
Discover how you can scavenge your real-life neighborhood for supplies to survive in Human Element using GPS data and real world locations.
