Ready At Dawn Introduces You To The Order’s Weaponry

In an alternate reality set during the Industrial Revolution, one would expect some very creative weapons.

And that's exactly what we examine in Ready at Dawn's new developer diary for the upcoming PlayStation 4 exclusive, The Order: 1886 .

It's interesting to note that inventor Nikola Tesla will appear in the game to supply your team with weapons based on real, Victorian-Era technology. Obviously, there's a lot of creative license thrown in as well, but any basis in reality is quite intriguing. Said studio CEO and creative director Ru Weerasuriya:

"Because our Industrial Revolution is a result of the war between Humans and Half-Breeds, many of the inventions of our timeline are primarily focused on ways to aid in this fight. Guns such as the Carbine, the Coach Gun or the Maschinenpistole are common occurrence in the game and represent the technology of the era. While others based on electricity such as the Arc Gun, or based on alternate ammunition such as the Aluminum Iron Oxide of the Thermite Rifle, provide a way for us to use real technologies and materials of the times, while building weapons that did not exist."

There will be plenty of slick weapons on display in the game, and we're hoping for one of the most imaginative and effective arsenals anyone has ever seen. Yeah, our expectations are high.

Expectations are very low for this but that may be a blessing in disguise.

Thats still one of the biggest disappointments in my 32 years of gaming. Too many reviewers blew the experience WAY out of purportion.

World, David Bowie played Tesla in The Preastige in 2006 and he was great in it (the movie is from the same director of The Dark Knight, Inception).

Hmmmm, I am still on the fence about this game, I loved the e3 trailer as it was more suspenseful. I guess my main concern that it may just end up like Gears of War but in a different coat.
