Here it is done, which means that at this stage Sergey likes it, and we are going in the right direction. We are inspired by the original trilogy. In this regard, the game will remain true to its spirit and atmosphere. At the same time, it should be something new, because a lot of time has passed, and it should be played like a modern game, ”the PR manager said.

As for the release date, Bocharov officially announced that the game will definitely be released in the 21st century.
