Mars: War Logs looks like The Witcher in space, gets new screens

Mars: War Logs is the incoming action-RPG from Spiders, heading to PSN, Xbox Live and PC later this year. We reported on the game’s announcement back in August, and it looks like it’s shaping up very nicely indeed.

In case you missed the announcement, here’s a quick plot overview:

“Over a century after the catastrophe that shook Mars and threw its colonists into chaos, power is now shared between the different companies distributing the arid planet’s most precious asset: water. The conservative and somewhat archaic Abundance thus struggles to maintain its influence in the face of Aurora, a young guild whose power stems from their plethora of Technomancers, people capable of focusing their energy in Terran artefacts to create devastating “magical” effects.”

You can also check out the reveal trailer here.

Now for those screens:

Thanks AGB.

War Logs? Really.. War Logs?

That name makes me think of Angry Turds which incidentally was going to be the name of my parody of a certain popular game..

* Take on the role of Roy Temperance, a multi-talented renegade, and surround yourself with companions with real personalities.
*Choose from the numerous dialog possibilities and influence the destiny of your people.
* Personalize your fighting style through a dynamic and developed combat system, for entirely different approaches depending on the choices you make.
* Personalize your development by choosing from dozens of skills and numerous additional perks!
* Modify and create your own equipment with our craft system.

That does sound interesting, but Spiders doesn’t really have a great track record, so i wouldn’t get my hopes up just yet. Gameplay footage is in need.
