There are few games that can really replicate the intensity of a good action movie. Titles like Sifu or Control were very good at fully immersing the player in an action setting. The new game developed by Nekki, Spine, is trying to make the same attempt with an unbelievable potential to really make the player feel part of an action game, similar to games like Uncharted that are about spectacle.

In this title, the player will have to use Gun Fu as the main weapon and martial arts to defeat enemies. This combat style was one of the best things that movies like John Wick had.

The protagonist of the game will use a gun and her fists to kill and eliminate different waves of enemies. Players are loving the futuristic setting. The game has many gamers waiting for it to be released.

I'm a big fan of movies and videogames in general. I really love Pokémon and Godzilla. One of my favorite games is The Last of Us, Part II. A compelling and well-written story is always welcome.
