Black Panther: Details of its Innovative Narrative System Revealed

EA and Cliffhanger Games are working on this open-world game

Despite some recent setbacks, the current era of superhero video games is the best in history, as the chances of seeing great games are higher than ever. One of the recent surprises has been the revelation of the Black Panther video game developed by EA and Cliffhanger Games, which will introduce some innovations, including a promising narrative system.

What will the narrative system of the Black Panther video game be like?

When the Black Panther game was revealed, it was announced as an open-world game with an open and non-linear story, which raised concerns about the possibility of the focus being solely on mechanics while the narrative might not be deep or engaging. However, it seems that what we will have in this video game is an innovative way of telling the story of the Marvel character, as revealed in a recent job listing (via Gamingbolt).

According to the job listing from Cliffhanger Games, which is currently looking for a designer and 2 software engineers, the Black Panther game will be an open-world experience with rich, dynamic environments and the presence of memorable characters and enemies.

Furthermore, this Black Panther title will feature a "highly innovative" system called Open Story, defined as the integration of interconnected systems related to dialogue subsystems and all kinds of interactions. Similarly, it is anticipated that this system will offer dynamic narrative development with branching dialogues and a focus on what they call interactive fiction.

While dialogue trees and their consequences are not new in video games, it's possible that the Black Panther video game will build upon them and take them to the next level, bringing freshness to open-world experiences without neglecting the story and narrative elements that are often seen as almost sacred by superhero fans.

Stay tuned to LEVEL UP for more updates.
