Cue the action music; more open-world madness from Volition is on the way.
All of us at Volition are incredibly excited to finally be able to share a brand new Agents of Mayhem gameplay trailer that shows off all 12 Agents, the final box art, and most importantly answer the burning question on everyone’s minds… a release date of August 15, 2017!
I know that things have been pretty quiet from our studio these past few months. The truth of the matter is that we’ve all been working like crazy on the game to create a unique experience that delivers that special Volition style and humor. I could go on about the huge number of missions, the deep levels of gameplay customization and crafting, the easter eggs and nods to our past games, or the colorful cast of new characters that have charmed their way into my heart. The most important thing to me though, is that Agents of Mayhem is FUN. Playing, and replaying, and replaying yet again always manages to put a smile on my face.
Today was just the start. We have a ton of awesome content lined up in the coming months between now and when the game launches on PlayStation 4 in August. I can’t wait to share it with everyone!
Was just thinking about this the other day. Nice to know its still alive.
Quick question, what kind of PS4Pro support will this have?
Hi Hayterfan!
We’re nailing down details on this now, but what we can say is that there will definitely be improved performance on the platform, taking advantage of the PS4 Pro hardware. Look for more details on the exact nature of the improvements soon.
Awesome to hear, although just going to mention I’d prefer 1080/60 (Or unlocked FPS) over the 4K/30.
Are the environments destructible like in Red Faction Guerilla? I would love a Saints Row-style game with Red Faction-style destruction!
Nice Trailer…I really liked the 80s reference for those of us old enough to remember the 80s !
Agreed. If they actually do make a Knight Rider trailer later, I hope they continue the theme with future trailers and go with Airwolf. LOL
Forget the 2 second Night Rider reference at the end, the main clip was all A-Team, lol.
This game looks awesome
2 questions will this have single player campaign and if so can I choose to play it offline?
HI DX2800!
Glad you liked the trailer. Agents of Mayhem is a single-player game, so you are welcome to play it offline, online, in-line, or out of line. Feel free to choose your own adventure or line.
That girl doing the metal hand sign caught my attention \m/ lol. Mike, please tell me she rocks.
Please tell me this is not a multi-player game like Battleborn and Overwatch.
This is not a multi-player game like Battleborn or Overwatch.
I still don’t know what this game is all about. Is this an open world action game a’la Saints Row? or just a multiplayer wave based shooter like Battleborn? I loved Saint’s Row for the open world single player campaign. If they don’t have that, I’ll pass.
Lucky for you, it has exactly that. If you love Volition games for their signature humor and open-world style, you’ll get a lot more of that.
*insert fanboy scream here*
So excited for Volition’s new game. I will always be a fan of their work!
So…… Gameplay will be in the next trailer?
Nice trailer that showed off some characters and tone, but i have no idea what the game is.
Yes! In the meantime, there are a variety of previews available that went live today showcasing media hands-on impression with the gameplay.
I love your games, they’re a lot of fun. Playing Red Faction [PS2] on PS4 right now, and while a bit dated it’s been a lot of fun. The level design is pretty great, and it’s nice to have a FPS that doesn’t over explain where to go and instead opts for more visual, realistic cues than overuse of HUD.
I can’t wait for this game to come out, had it preordered since it went up. Keep on making the fun games and I’ll keep on buying ’em.
So… this is basically what happens when you mix Crackdown and Saints Row.
I don’t know what you mean when you say things like ‘Crackdown’, this is the PS Blog after all. ^_^
Will there be and licensed music/ radio stations in the game? The SR soundtrack was always great and I want to know if AOM can have that same vibe.
happy to see this game is still alive. I already see who out of the 12 are going to be used in my 3 man squad.
Great to hear it. There’s a balance that should take place of which agents you use to assembled your team. It should be a mix of personalities you like and their strategic importance in the situation (if you’re playing on harder difficulties)
I love how that ending theme towards the end had a distinct Team America: World Police vibe going on.
While I have to be honest and say that the direction Saint’s Row went in after the sequel wasn’t to my liking, I still enjoyed the last game. This looks like it would be fun, and there’s nothing wrong with that :)
Blood in, blood out. <3
Quick question are you guys planning a limited edition? I would give you more money.
If I squint really hard and use the power of imagination it’s Johnny Gat. -_-
Volition games soundtracks are hilarious looking forward to hearing more.
Conspiracy Theory: Volition Games are king-makers “Saints Row IV – KRhyme FM – White Weird – Donald Trump Walk” August 20, 2013. Saints Row IV a video game about being president, has a song about the next president. Everyone also drinks water and likes puppies.
Ooh nice to hear about this game again…really liked that 1st trailer you guys released some time ago and kept looking forward to the game but been a while since I saw any news about it.I wanna see pure gameplay but I’m fan of Volition’s work since PS2’s The Punisher ha…Red Faction and Saints made me trust in you guys even more so ma guess is that I can’t go wrong with Agents of Mayhem.Also it’s nice to see the 1st game of Volition on PS4…and that Iron Man-like suit is pretty cool lol .
Too bad, I really was hoping for a Saints Row (preferably SR2) style game
