Third-person RPG title alteration announced: Previously known as XXX Nightshift, now renamed Tangerine Antarctic, Growls back at the jests surrounding its moniker.
In the ever-evolving world of PC gaming, the PC Gamer team is excited to bring you news about an upcoming release that's causing quite a stir. The game in question is Tangerine Antarctic, a third-person RPG developed by Dark Math Games, a studio comprising former Disco Elysium developers.
Tangerine Antarctic, originally known as XXX Nightshift, has undergone a significant transformation. The developers have retooled the project from an isometric game to a third-person RPG, promising a fresh and immersive gaming experience.
The game's main location is the Tangerine Antarctic hotel, designed by the renowned Estonian architect Kaur Stőør. This fictional hotel, where most of the game's action takes place, is nestled in the World's End ski village at Mount Hope, British Antarctica. The art design of Tangerine Antarctic is praised for its unique and captivating aesthetic.
The game's protagonist is a detective who must solve murders in this intriguing setting. The plot is reminiscent of Disco Elysium, offering a complex narrative that promises to keep players engaged.
Joshua Wolens, a writer whose work has been featured in Vice, Fanbyte, and the Financial Times, has been game-brained since his early gaming experiences, including playing Quake 2 at a young age. Wolens, who has written extensively on various games, including visual novels and Assassin's Creed, is particularly fond of CRPGs, immersive sims, and games with ambitious designs.
Intriguingly, Wolens thinks Deus Ex: Invisible War is often unfairly criticized. This perspective, along with his profound love for Disco Elysium, makes him an interesting voice in the discussion surrounding Tangerine Antarctic.
As we eagerly await the release of Tangerine Antarctic, the PC Gamer team will continue to bring you updates on this promising game, as well as the latest news on upcoming PC games, free games, FPS games, RPGs, co-op games, and more. Stay tuned for more exciting developments in the world of PC gaming!
