Game Detail
Bombshell is a
top-down action role-playing game developed by Interceptor Entertainment and
published by 3D Realms. The game was released on January 29, 2016 for Microsoft
Windows, with PlayStation 4 and Xbox One release dates to be announced later.
The game runs on Unreal Engine 3.
Development
The game was conceived during Gearbox Software's lawsuit
against Interceptor regarding the video game Duke Nukem: Mass Destruction.
Interceptor was working on the game for the PlayStation 4 and PC, however due
to a lawsuit by Gearbox Software, the game's name was changed to Bombshell and
the main character was changed to Shelly Harrison who was originally meant to
play a supporting role in the Duke Nukem game. In April 2014, a website
NoGumNeeded.com was launched by Interceptor Entertainment that showed a
countdown. The game was revealed with the title Bombshell in development for
Microsoft Windows and PlayStation 4 on May 14, 2014 along with a trailer and
was scheduled to be released in 2015. Some details about the gameplay and the
protagonist Shelly "Bombshell" Harrison were revealed in the
announcement. It was also announced that the game utilised the Unreal Engine
and it will launch with modding tools. Due to the negative reception to the
trailer, 3D Realms started the development of the game from scratch. The
gameplay trailer was released on March 2, 2015 during Game Developers
Conference. The E3 2015 trailer was released on June 25, 2015. On July 23, a
ten-minute long video showing gameplay of the game was released during QuakeCon
2015. On August 27, a game trailer of the boss battle against "Zeroth
Guardian" was released during PAX Prime 2015. In January 2016, the game's
voice cast was announced, including Valerie Arem as Bombshell and Duke Nukem
voice actor Jon St. John as Professor Jadus Heskel. The release of the Windows
version of the game was delayed to January 29, 2016 so as to give additional
time for the developer to fix bugs.
