News: A New Beginning Info & Screens

We have all the information and screenshots you need for the gorgeous looking upcoming eco-thriller for the Wii, A New Beginning...

The year 2050: The cities of the world lie in ruins. Catastrophic climate change, long prophesized, has devastated the world with fatal consequences. In a flooded San Francisco, time pilot Fay overlooks the magnitude of the destruction. Sent from a distant future to avert the evisceration of mankind, she is faced with the horrible realization that it is already too late. The last hope for salvation is another desperate leap back in time to our present!

In Daedalic Entertainment's upcoming "eco-thriller" A New Beginning, players must play as Fay and team up with scientist Bent Svensson to try and stem the tide. Players will experience an absorbing adventure about the most important issue of our times. At locations around the globe, it is up to them to change the course of history � with the whole world hanging in the balance.

Backgrounds like the devastated skyline of San Francisco are constructed from more than 20 2D layers to ensure a realistic sense of depth and high level of detail. More than 130 locations make A New Beginning one of the largest adventure games in recent years. The more than 30 characters are rendered in a realistic 2D style and are painstakingly animated by hand in feature film quality.

Seriously, check out the screenshots below - this is one of the best looking Wii games we've seen to date, which only makes it more painful that this classic point & click adventure game (to be released on Wii, DS and PC) is still not out until 2009.
