Deliver Us Mars, the highly anticipated sci-fi adventure sequel to Deliver us the Moon, has just released a brand-new trailer today featuring gorgeous cinematics and new gameplay.
Developed by KeokeN Interactive, Deliver Us Mars is launching on February 2nd, 2023. It’ll be available on PC, as well as both the latest gens of Xbox and PlayStation. Here’s the full Countdown to Launch trailer from the game’s official YouTube channel:
If Deliver us the Moon wasn’t evidence enough, every marketing trailer for Deliver Us Mars continues to prove that this indie team comprehends the finest details of what makes space and sci-fi appealing.
Although the name of today’s trailer is on the nose and playful, its content reinforces the moody atmosphere set by previous teasers and behind-the-scenes footage. The storytelling and development process have serious potential to be equally profound, ambitious, and meaningful.
It’s hard to ignore comparisons to similar stories that combine epic space and intimate drama, such as Interstellar, Ad Astra, Gravity and the like. Especially when half of the trailer feels very much like an arthouse blockbuster itself. But the game has a personality of its own, and fans of the genre should be very pleased.
Deliver us the Moon always felt like its hands were tied by the budget, since most of its flaws were technical. But its themes, ideas, and mechanics were solid, and definitely serve as a strong foundation now.
It seems that Deliver Us Mars will expand on the strengths of Deliver us the Moon, while pushing its limits yet again. The underlying message of the game is smoothly blended into a character-driven narrative, the art design is beautiful, and the mechanics promise to be even more elaborate.
