Oni Announced
When Bungie Software set up a development studio in San Jose in 1997 they began work on Oni. In 1999, Bungie's game Oni will hit the shelves and third-person action games will never be the same.
Oni Announced is the story on November 20, 1998, and it is one of those late-1998 PC gaming updates that says exactly where the scene is right now. When Bungie Software set up a development studio in San Jose in 1997 they began work on Oni. In 1999, Bungie's game Oni will hit the shelves and third-person action games will never be the same.
Oni tells the story of Konoko, an elite cop and one-woman SWAT team whose approach to fighting crime is a devastating combination of rational calculation and fighting fury. She is also a woman divided and haunted by shadows in her past, by oni (ghosts or demons in Japanese). Perhaps the most stylish of Bungie's games so far, the game puts the player in a near-future anime world. The business side keeps moving, and sometimes those deals decide what we actually get to play next year.
