Early development underway with Unreal Engine 5Not to be confused (https://pmunofficial.com/en/download/) with a certain high-profile Super Smash Bros. Brawl mod, Project M from NCSOFT is an upcoming Unreal Engine 5-developed, console-bound "interactive movie experience" with an eye-catching trailer. I can't say I'm exactly picturing a full-fledged game yet from this limited proof-of-concept, but the premise of a "man seeking vengeance" ? combined with these high production values ? speaks to me.

The footage is heavy on the "is revenge ever really worth it" theme? and shows a few action sequences that would look at home in one of Supermassive's cinematic horror adventures like The Quarry (https://www.destructoid.com/reviews/review-the-quarry-supermassive-games-horror-adventure/). For some players, there's not enough interactivity, but I don't mind as long as the pacing is tight and my mind doesn't have room to wander too much.
Plus, these sorts of accessible choice-based cinematic games tend to be a riot with other players in the room lending their voices (and other antics). For Project M, NCSOFT says the game will (https://blog.ncsoft.com/en-projectm-220608/) "feature different stories and endings depending on the player's choices."

Coming to consoles... eventuallyDetails are limited, to the point where NCSOFT has only said Project M is in development for "consoles," but the trailer features "actual gameplay content." Why show it now?
According to principal development management officer Moon Young Choi, the reveal trailer is a part of a new "NCing" R&D initiative. "NCing expresses the company's commitment to unveil the development process and to continue communicating with the players earlier with regards to new projects," he said in a press statement.
"Going forward, we will proactively showcase our development progress in various forms of content such as trailer videos, interviews, novels, and webtoons."
