Insomniac Announces Sunset Overdrive Exclusively For Xbox One

June 10, 2013

Insomniac Games has announced its first exclusive for the Xbox One, Sunset Overdrive. Ted Price called the game an "open-world shooter," but it looks to be quite a bit more than that. From the short demonstration they showed, Sunset Overdrive seems to have some elements of parkour and four-player co-op as well.

The visuals are a bit cartoonish, almost like Ratchet & Clank and yet not at the same time, but the weaponry seems to be just as silly.

We'll have more on this game as our E3 team sees more this week (we hope this one is available on the showroom floor, anyway).

I've been a writer since I was five, but I came to the gaming realm a little late--post college. However, I've well made up for that ever since I took over my husband's PlayStation 2. I've been writing about and reviewing games since 2005, and can currently be found writing for P laystation LifeStyle and Strategy Guide Reviews on a regular basis.

I'm a professional writer and aspiring yoga teacher by day, but a I'm a game-loving, comic-reading, fantasy book-obsessing geek 24-hours a day.
