[Watch] Check out this Resident Evil spiritual successor titled Daymare: 1998

It's been a while since we've gotten a good, old-school Resident Evil game and we probably won't see one ever again with the way the series is currently going. To keep that feeling alive, indie developer Invader Studios has taken it upon themselves to create a spiritual successor to the legendary survival horror series.

The survival horror genre has shifted from the tense over the shoulder shooter that they used to be to more first person games where the player is vulnerable and has to hide rather than fight. It'll be refreshing to see Invader Studios' take on the genre which you can take a look at in the gameplay trailer below.

The description of the trailer also offers a taste of what to expect in the game.

"Daymare: 1998 is a third person survival horror game currently in development at Invader Studios.
In the late 90s, a terrorist attack transforms the unaware citizens of a little community of northwest America into violent and deformed creatures.

The players are expected to survive to this waking nightmare that has its roots in a nostalgic mood. The narration is full of direct references to the pop culture of the 90's and the modern gameplay mechanics fit perfectly with the old school survival horror atmosphere."

Invader Studios is set to launch a Kickstarter campaign for Daymare: 1998 in early 2017.
