This is cool: Sniper Elite developer Rebellion has announced its next game, Strange Brigade. The title is a four-player co-operative shooter in the same vein as Zombie Army Trilogy, but this time it’s boasting a 1930s-inspired Mayan, Incan, and Egyptian theme. You’ll see what we mean when you watch the trailer embedded above.
Here’s the official blurb from the developer, complete with classic movie poster-esque emphasis: “Embark on an exotic safari into DANGER where few dare go and fewer return! Encounter FANTASTIC and forgotten civilizations shrouded in MYSTERY! Uncover TREACHEROUS tombs and unfathomable EVIL, never-before-seen by any human now living…”
Rebellion knows its way around good co-op games, so we’re eager to see more of this in action. A full gameplay trailer will be showcased at E3 2017 next week.

I must admit, that looks interesting and could be good fun. I quite enjoyed the 1930's B-movie style voice-over. Will keep my eye on this...
@NintendoFan4Lyf I really really wanted that game to be good, and I am getting a little of the same vibe as well!
I really really want this game to be good.
Love the theme (this is why I wish Farm 51 were working on a new "Deadfall Adventures" game instead of "Get Even"), but I look at this and I just see mediocrity. Remember "God Mode" or "R.I.P.D."? And definitely the Wii U's infamous "Lost Reavers"; definitely glad someone else mentioned that. This looks like that kind of design to me, instead of a bigger/more ambitious co-op game.
I'm hoping I'm wrong, but its Rebellion, and while they did right by Battlezone (the remake of the '98 one on PC. I've not yet played the VR one, though that looks good too), they're still known more for mediocre titles than great ones. It just really looks like another one of those types of games... with a really killer theme draped over it.
This looks freakin fun!
I'm loving the vibe of this. The announcer must've had fun recording this trailer!
I'm looking forward to seeing more.
This may be good!
I really liked Sniper Elite 3 and plan to pick up 4 eventually.
