Playism's upcoming release, Urban Legend Hunters 2: Double, offers a unique blend of FMV and augmented reality gameplay. Players investigate the disappearance of a missing YouTuber, Chris, interacting with his associates Rain, Shou, and Tangtang. The mystery revolves around a doppelganger legend, where one person replaces another without detection.
The game's innovative approach uses AR to overlay FMV footage onto real-world environments via your phone's camera. This unusual technique, while quirky, adds a creative layer to the investigation.
While not a high-brow psychological thriller, Urban Legend Hunters 2: Double embraces the inherent cheesiness often associated with FMV horror. This playful approach to the genre might be its greatest strength. Though a precise release date is pending (sometime this winter), it's definitely worth keeping an eye on.
