Liquid Swords – the new studio from Avalanche Studios co-founder and former Just Cause director Christofer Sundberg – has just released a blueberry-sized morsel of a teaser for its currently unnamed first game.
This is a nine-second clip of what appears to be a ruined, gray city, which looks as industrial and abandoned as a parking lot at midnight. The only action on its lonely streets are a handful of cars going reasonably fast, and there are some flashes of muted light on the surface of its surrounding river. But Sundberg says on Twitter that the game – which Liquid Swords only refers to as Game 1 at the moment – will eventually be something "more like … Mad Max …. Payne."
