Fans are buzzing: with Bethesda’s Fallout 5 still lightyears away amid Elder Scrolls VI delays, this retro-futuristic western shooter is positioning itself as the ultimate wasteland fix – complete with bounty hunting, dynamic shootouts, and moral dilemmas that could make the Lone Wanderer jealous.

Announced back in 2021 with a stylish teaser evoking Blade Runner grit crossed with Mad Max flair, ExeKiller went radio silent for years, sparking “vaporware” whispers on Reddit and X. But Paradark – a tight-knit Krakow-based team grinding on Unreal Engine 5 – proved the doubters wrong. Their latest drop, narrated by devs themselves, peels back the vault door on core mechanics: semi-open hubs teeming with radiation-soaked ruins of an alternate 1970s New York, where cyberpunk cowboys roam amid corporate overlords and mutant outlaws.

You step into the boots of a nameless bounty hunter (codenamed “Denzel Fenix” in leaks), chasing high-value marks across irradiated badlands. No hand-holding here: dynamic combat lets you blast foes with retro-futuristic iron – revolvers, shotguns, energy rifles – while hacking terminals, overloading power grids, or activating CyberVision for hidden paths in pitch-black zones. Fast, drivable hover-cars scream through dunes for vehicular combat, pursuits, and quick escapes, echoing Fallout‘s Vertibirds but with Cyberpunk 2077‘s neon-drenched speed.

RPG depth shines in progression: scavenge for upgrades, craft ammo, and build your loadout from a web of perks emphasizing player freedom. Missions aren’t linear checklists – investigate crime scenes, interrogate suspects, or go rogue for bounties. Choices branch hard: spare a target for intel? Execute for quick caps? Paradark stresses “dialogue that matters,” with consequences rippling across factions like the shadowy Blind Justice crew or Techtronik corps. Survival elements – radiation management, resource scarcity – amp the tension, all in immersive sim style akin to Deus Ex or early Fallout titles.

Why the Fallout 5 killer buzz? Todd Howard’s squad is buried in Starfield DLC and Elder Scrolls, leaving fans parched post-TV show boom. ExeKiller‘s wasteland – scorched NYC skyscrapers fused with dusty saloons – nails that gritty, choice-driven RPG itch without Bethesda’s bloat.

No multiplayer fluff; single-player focus on story with multiple endings.
