Quantum Theory, Tecmo’s upcoming third-person Gears of War-style shooter, has gone multiplatform and will now appear on the Xbox 360 as well as the PlayStation 3 sometime in 2010.
Quantum Theory is Tecmo Koei Europe’s newest original IP and the company’s first attempt at the third-person shooter genre.
Players take on the role of the massive, gun-wielding warrior Syd and will battle through intense action sequences in an unpredictable, shape-shifting battlefield, aided by the mysterious acrobatic Filena.
In addition to single player campaign, Quantum Theory also supports four modes of online multiplayer, complete with voice chat for real-time communication.
Although this game is no doubt a Gears clone, the game DOES still look mighty fun and super impressive. Also the cooperative action and double-team-moves that you can pull off look like it may be enough to separate it from Gears of War 2, especially if the environments have more puzzle-like elements.
Here is the latest trailer from TGS 09.
