In a recent update about the highly anticipated sci-fi first-person shooter Judas, director Ken Levine offered fresh insights into how player actions will shape the interactions with the game’s central characters, known as the ‘Big 3.’

These characters will evolve based on the players’ choices, affecting their allegiances and potentially turning them into antagonistic forces. While there’s no release date yet for Judas, excitement continues to build following these revelations from the mind behind BioShock.

The Big 3 Villains

Levine hinted that players would engage deeply with the ‘Big 3’ characters, each having unique backgrounds that the players can uncover through interaction. These relationships are expected to provide strategic benefits to players as they navigate the game, unlike typical NPCs from previous titles.

However, players should be cautious, as neglecting one of these characters might lead to betrayal, adding a complex layer to the gameplay experience. Levine draws a parallel to the Nemesis System from Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor, emphasizing that the dynamics in Judas will be much more personal and intense. This innovative approach to character relationships is sure to elevate the stakes in Judas and set it apart from its predecessors.
