New Blood’s New Game Is A Fallout Tribute With First-Person Combat
By Lewis "lickety" Larcombe|October 11, 2022|0 Comment
Back in June, game developer New Blood teased a new classic RPG that looks extremely reminiscent of the original isometric Fallout games. Not only does the project boast two veterans of the Fallout modding scene, but original composer Mark Morgan will provide the soundtrack.
Clearly paying tribute to the original Fallout franchise, it’s not to be mistaken for a copy. One major factor that deviates from the original games will be the combat. In a Twitter thread, studio head Dave Oshry offered a rare update on the project, which will not be playable or even fully revealed “for a long time”.
Since today marks the 25th anniversary of #Fallout, maybe it's time we show you how we're changing the perspective of combat in @NewBlood's CRPG – and how it differs from our main inspiration. pic.twitter.com/ytFau23hqc

“Surely the biggest complaint about classic Fallout games has always been the slow n’ clunky nature of the turn-based combat,” stated Oshry. “While we’re still keeping things turn-based, by switching up the style and perspective more akin to classic dungeon crawlers, we find it much more engaging.”
As Oshry notes, it’s first-person, but you can bet it’s not a boomer shooter. What stands out the most is the art done by Alexander “Red888guns” Berezin, who worked on the popular Fallout Sonora and Olympus 2207 mods.
The 30-second snippet also confirms some other features (albeit features you’d expect from a Fallout homage). Dialogue options range from diplomatic through to cheeky, there’s an action log, and the user interface is very much in keeping with the golden era of ’90s CRPGs. The first-person view itself is very charming.
