Combining the post-apocalyptic setting of The Last of Us with the FPS features of the Far Cry franchise, Forest Reigns is an upcoming open-world action FPS from VG Entertainment.

This survival FPS with RPG elements will present Paris as you would never expect: overrun by growing trees and foliage that are ever-evolving. However, it is not just nature, but a conscious entity of its own and interacting with it will reveal its true mysteries. If you learn how to wield it, you will learn how to defeat enemies, but if you anger it, you will see it become one of your many adversaries throughout Forest Reigns.

Telling a non-linear story, Forest Reigns features multiple missions, the chance to join or compete against fellow factions, and most importantly, allows you to make your every decision knowing that the future will adapt to your choices. With tons of weapons and customizable gear to master, you will be able to upgrade your arsenal in a world where every shot counts. However, much like the world of The Last of Us, resources are scarce, and you will need to craft, scavenge and plan ahead before you walk into danger.

Adapt to this green new world or become natural selection's next victim.
