Hard Reset is an old school science fiction FPS from new developer Flying Wild Hog.

Flying Wild Hog is a 35-person Polish studio made by former Bulletstorm (People Can Fly) and The Witcher 2 (CD Projekt) veterans.

Hard Reset hopes to take you to a "haunting, dystopian" future where humanity faces extinction. One human city remains, Bezoar, and you as Major Fletcher will need to defend it. Hard Reset will use a proprietary Road Hog game engine.

    Day 1 purchase after seeing some preview gameplay.

    It's 10% off if you preorder it on Steam. Already did that myself.

    Are the devs who made Hard Reset really Bulletstorm vets or rather Painkiller vets? They had to have quit a while ago to make a whole game so they probably can't have worked on Bulletstorm to the end.

    @ #2

    I think they are both Painkiller & Bulletstorm (plus some Witcher devs from CD Projekt), but it's true that they probably didn't work on Bullestorm till the end. Hard Reset development took 2 years if I remember well.

    Damn that's a good price. I'm probably not day one but it's definitely on the radar. Now back to this backlog...
