Dark Void is a yet-to-be-released sci-fi shooter coming from Capcom and it’s already getting a movie made. The game is developed by Airtight games and follows the character of William Agustus Grey as he ends up in another universe after crashing his cargo vessel in the Bermuda Triangle.

The story is about Grey and the humans he meets in this parallel world fighting against the “Watchers,” aliens who were banished to this realm only to return and use humans as slaves, acting as gods. What makes the game really unique is the combat system which takes place on the surface and in the air where you’ll be able to use cover either from the top or bottom -- a vertical cover system usable with your jetpack.

The game is now getting some major attention with Reliance BIG Entertainment and Brad Pitt’s Plan B Productions company set to adapt it into a feature film with Pitt starring as the protagonist. You can check out the game trailer for an idea of what to expect.

In the game, your character works with Nikola Tesla to use the Watcher technology against them. If you haven’t seen it, Here’s the trailer from earlier this year which presents the cinematic quality of the game’s cutscenes that helped get the film rights picked up quick:

Trailer looks interesting. Hard to tell how good of a game it’s going to be based on that though.

I got to play this at Comic-Con and believe me, it’s super fun. The controls feel amazing and I was really surprised by how fluid the animations were.
