Croteam is finally starting to give out some basic details on their next game, now called Serious Sam 4: Planet Badass.

Details are obviously light, but we finally have the official name along with this teaser:

When I said basic details, I really did mean it. This is literally all they've shown.

Given their history with Linux support, I've no doubt it will be on Linux and it will likely be using their newer Fusion engine with Vulkan support. It does list "SteamOS + Linux" in the system requirements section, but it's obviously not filled out yet. Checking SteamDB quickly, it does show that Linux is in the "oslist" which was added recently—a reasonably good sign.

There's also now a Steam page ready for it.

An inussualy frank trailer. The whole game you are going to find is like from the second 0:41 to the end.

Quoting: Geppeto35so serious sam 4: still kills every thing place after place, with same stupid mobs with current graphic standards...

Hope they will introduce novelty like a pinch of RPG, some story elements, etc.
Are you serious?

Quoting: Adamfx990Serious Sam is the Créme de la créme of dumb co-op shooters.

Coop?! I wasn't aware these games offered a coop mode! That would probably be what I would need to really enjoy these games. A buddy and I, a bottle of alcoholic beverage and traversing through this madness? Oh yesh, totally.

Quoting: BeamboomI'm such a dull person. When I watched the video, I thought, "how can that guy scream "waaaaaaa!" with no head?".

Much like when skeletons are talking and they have no lungs in their chest, let alone vocal cords. Details like that really annoys me.

I really am no fun.

They still got lungs and a hole... hehe

Awesome. Croteam are currently on my "buy everything they release" list due to their excellent Linux support. I can also highly recommend The Talos Principle, it's magnificent, and not the kind of game you'd expect from the creators of Serious Sam.

You could call it the opposite of Serious Sam in several respects. :)

Hmm - maybe we should give it a shot someday if we're both on Steam? Do I have you on my Steam list? Could be fun just to give it a spin?!

That's a nice idea, but with my two baby girls (10 months now), I have so little time to play anthing at all... :)

TWO? So, twins? That's quite the load, I can imagine. :D I got two girls myself, but 3 and 6 years old.

Anyhow, you know where to find me if you should feel so inclined. :) I'm Beamboom on Steam too.
