Anyone who overlooked Prey (as I did for years) but loves the Looking Glass Studios games and successors (Thief series, Deus Ex series, System Shock series, Dishonored Series): just get it an play it. Read nothing. Just play it. You won’t regret it.

Worth qualifying as Prey (2017). Somewhat related[1] to Prey(2006) which is also a great game. Chris did not work on the 2006 one.

[1]: it's complicated.

Yes, the 2017 one is what I mean.

I think the overlapping names might even be why I overlooked it. Didn’t realize it was a new game.

IIRC it was supposed to be a sequel for 2006 one at some point, but some development and name rights shenanigans happened.

When it was developed as a sequel, the story was completely different.
