Since Highguard was revealed at The Game Awards 2025, Wildlight Entertainment hasn’t shared much information about the game. Most fans have only seen the original trailer, and that’s been the extent of updates. It looks like a team-based hero shooter where two sides fight to destroy each other’s base. The game is being called a “raid shooter,” and players will use mounts like horses to move around the map quickly. They’ll fight enemies using weapons and special abilities, and the ultimate goal is to grab the Shieldbreaker sword, which summons a powerful ram to break into the enemy base. Luckily, it looks like fans will finally get some answers soon, although the timing is a bit strange.
The term “survival horror” is often associated with the original Resident Evil game from 1996, but many believe earlier titles like Haunted House (1982), Sweet Home (1989), and Alone in the Dark (1992) first established key elements of the genre. Over the years, horror games have continued to evolve, introducing innovative gameplay mechanics. Features like the camera-based ghost hunting in Fatal Frame and the sanity meter in Eternal Darkness: Sanity’s Requiem have become particularly well-known and have been copied in many other games, both large and small. Vultures – Scavengers of Death aims to honor the legacy of classic survival horror while also incorporating a unique twist inspired by turn-based RPGs.

Gears of War already explores the difficult realities of war and its impact on individuals, but the new prequel seems likely to delve even further into these themes. Focusing the story on the city of Kalona feels like a smart choice, and suggests that Gears of War: E-Day might also have strong horror elements.
