Among the brand new titles revealed during the 2020 Game Awards was Evil West, a dark Western action game.

Evil West is being developed by Flying Wild Hog. Their relatively short list of credits includes Hard Reset and the Shadow Warrior franchise, the first of which is considered one of the best ninja games of all time. Publisher Focus Home Interactive, meanwhile, has released titles ranging from A Plague Tale: Innocence to actual esports game Farming Simulator 19.

Release Date

Evil West was only just revealed for the very first time, there’s little indication as to when the game will be released beyond a general timeframe. At the end of its reveal video, a general 2021 release date is listed.

Evil West will be released for PC, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PS5 and PS4 and Next-Gen consoles.

Trailer

The announcement of Evil West at the Game Awards 2020 consisted entirely of a new cinematic trailer.

Gameplay

Players in Evil West will ultimately carry out their battles against its undead and/or otherwise evil baddies with a variety of weapons, some of which are showcased in its initial trailer. These include a relatively traditional shotgun and handgun, in addition to some non-traditional items like a “lightning-fueled gauntlet” that morphs into spiked and blunt versions of itself.

While its campaign is driven by a story, it can be played both solo or cooperatively.

Stay tuned for more info on the title as soon as it’s out!
