The Next Game by the Dave the Diver Studio Is Not What You’d Expect

The studio behind summer hit Dave The Diver has announced its next game — and it’s very different indeed.

Dave the Diver is a casual, single-player adventure RPG featuring deep-sea exploration and fishing during the day and sushi restaurant management at night.

Mintrocket’s next game is Nakwon: Last Paradise, which sounds anything but casual. It’s described as a third-person zombie apocalypse stealth survival game in which you experience a new form of ‘post-apocalypse life’ we’ve never seen before. There is exploration, extraction, survival, resource gathering, and a PvPvE city in which zombies and survivors coexist to survive ‘in this new societal structure”.

Mintrocket said the core “fun” of Nakwon lies in your ability to survive on your own “amidst the extreme tension with aggressive zombies and unreliable survivors”. Survivors compete for limited resources or find ways to survive without casualties.

It’s set in Seoul, which makes sense given Mintrocket is a division of Nexon Korea Corporation. “The unique setting in Seoul will elevate your gaming experience to a level unlike anything you’ve played before,” the developer said. “Here, zombies behave like humans but are more powerful and will relentlessly pursue you.”

A pre-alpha test is expected soon. There’s no release date yet.

IGN’s Dave the Diver review emerged with a 9/10. We said: “Dave The Diver is an aquatic adventure RPG that’s wholesome, wonderfully complex, and delightfully hard to put down.”
