Frictional Games announced today that their former tech demo Penumbra will be turning into the full-fledged commercial title Penumbra – Overture. Set for release in Summer 2007, and still without a publisher, the FPS-Horror title uses advanced physics for interaction and puzzles.
The title will feature major updates to the gameplay and graphics of the tech demo, including "a melee combat system, greatly improved AI and more stable physics" as well as taking advantage of "full real-time lighting, motion blur, depth of field and advanced fogging."
Although the story is just being fleshed out, we know that the title "is set on Greenland where the protagonist searches for information regarding his late father."
More information as it comes.
