As you can see, this appears to be your post-apocalyptic world where humans are eking out a living among the ruins of their former civilisation. And sand. Lot of sand. This does provide the lady in the trailer something to surf down into battle, in a cool way, to protect a caravan travelling accross the desert. The voiceover gives a lot of talk of gods, sand, ruins, a shattered world, sand, stories, gods, and sand. You can indeed sand surf in-game, and hunt monsters using shapeshifting weapons, playing co-op or solo. So that’s the Monster Hunter part of my title bid covered, isn’t it? For the other half, I’m citing the special magic atacks and the top-down ish angle of the gameplay, as well as, you know, the general look of the thing. I mean it’s a fantasy ARPG, of course I’m going to mention Diablo. If Atlas Fallen does end up as a proper Diablike it’ll be no bad thing, because these days the Diablo series isn’t being that much of a Diablike. Atlas Fallen is being developed by Deck 13, and published by Focus Entertainment (purveyors of such fine video games as A Plague Tale and Hardspace: Shipbreaker). If you’ve utterly fallen in love with the reveal trailer you can wishlist Atlas Fallen right this second on Steam before the release in 2023.
