Apogee Software and Interceptor Entertainment are bringing back a long-dormant shooter with Rise of the Triad. The original was released way back in 1995, and involved fast shooting, bizarre weapons and, at least for the time, surprising amounts of gore.
This updated version is being built using Unreal Engine 3 and will feature a 20 stage single-player campaign as well as a multiplayer mode. Like in the original, you'll still be able to fire Drunk Missiles and rejoice as enemies explode into bits, as this version will include a full dismemberment system. As one of five playable characters, you'll be able to check out Rise of the Triad later this year on Steam.
It seems like Apogee and Interceptor are taking advantage of Valve's platform by including the ability to build and share levels through Steamworks. If you don't care about building and sharing levels, you'll still get plenty of other ways to extend the play experience beyond the base content, as plenty of secret areas, collectibles and modes (such as God mode, Elasto Mode, Shrooms Mode and Dog mode) will be included.
Did this announcement just trigger a nostalgic rush? Or do you have no idea what Rise of the Triad is?
