It was just brutal and horrific and that\u2019s great subject matter for an atmospheric and eerie game.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Players will stumble across ghosts, monsters and horrific creatures as they try and get to the bottom of what happened to the existing colony.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Clue by clue, you must piece together the story of what befell this doomed settlement and find a way to set things right,&#8221; it reads on the game\u2019s website.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You will be hunted by corrupted Conquistadors and ravening shadows as you explore an expansive wilderness in order to trace the brief, tragic history of the colony and search for survivors.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The game also features a unique monochromatic visual style, highlighting blood and gore alongside the environments.<\/p>\n<p>Betrayer will be released on PC through Steam\u2019s Early Access on 14 August. It will be priced at $15.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_57080\" style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/SomethingChanged.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-57080\" class=\"size-large wp-image-57080\" alt=\"Betrayer\" src=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/SomethingChanged-600x337.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"337\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/SomethingChanged-600x337.jpg 600w, https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/SomethingChanged-267x150.jpg 267w, https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/SomethingChanged-625x350.jpg 625w, https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/SomethingChanged.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-57080\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Betrayer<\/p><\/div>\n<h6>Source: <b><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">PC Gamer<\/a><\/b><\/h6>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">More gaming news:<\/h3>\n<p><b><a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/news\/57024-left-4-dead-3-in-development.html\">Left 4 Dead 3 in development?
