Fight an evil Groot in ex-Bioware devs’ new RPG Breach

A bunch of ex-Bioware staff are working on a brand new co-op-focused RPG called Breach, with the intent on "revitalizing the genre." It's set on a modern day Earth which has collided with "a parallel Mythological Earth", and most importantly, you get to fight an evil version of Groot from Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy. Breach has already been in development for three years with the new team at QC Games, with a planned Early Access release this year and a full free-to-play release in 2019. The studio is led by CEO Dallas Dickinson and Game Director/CCO Gabe Amatangelo, both formerly of BioWare who worked on titles such as Star Wars: The Old Republic, the Dragon Age games, and the unreleased Shadow Realms - which Breach seems more than a little influenced by. We spoke with Dallas Dickinson at Gamescom, and he compared Breach to Valve's sublime Left 4 Dead 2 - a game we compared Shadows Realms to, incidentally. "It kind of has the same feel to it." Despite the co-op focus Breach can be played solo, at least. "The idea is to play it however you want, you'll be able to find fun whether you want to play with other people, or nobody!"
