Could The Surge be potentially successful going by its pre-alpha demo? Maybe.

Deck13, the developers of Lords of the Fallen, seems to have learned from their mistakes that they did in their previous game in 2014. While The Surge is another hardcore action-RPG, you can’t compare it that easily to the Souls games due to its setting. After all, you haven’t seen FromSoftware going into the future with their games!

Throughout the almost fifteen minutes of gameplay, we hear many things from Deck13‘s game design head Adam Hetaney. He talks about the premise, the stamina-based combat system, the chopping off of the limbs, but he also goes over enemy types, and crafting as well, while the demo opens up in front of our eyes. There’s even a boss fight included, so Deck13 prepared in the best possible way.

The Surge will launch in 2017 on PlayStation 4 and PC. We wonder how much will the final version change from this pre-alpha.
