Redfall is the first Xbox exclusive from Arkane, known for Dishonored, Deathloop, and Prey. Since Microsoft acquired ZeniMax a couple of years ago, the studios under the ZeniMax brand have been under something of a microscope. Truth be told, ZeniMax is still a separate entity, completing its slate of games that have been in development since long before the merger. One of those games is Redfall.
Redfall has been described as Arkane's take on Far Cry by those who previewed the title a few weeks ago. It has the elements of similar games; a wide-open world, soft RPG mechanics with "lootable" weapons with randomized stats, and 4-player co-op complete with role-specific heroes.
