The reboot of Prey made a huge appearance at The Game Awards 2016, with a long gameplay trailer. The trailer showcases various weapons, abilities, enemies and the Talos I space station.

The weird part is that the cup is capable of independent movement, but hey, it’s sci-fi! The game looks great, with a slight retro look of the old day sci-fi movies. It also provides you with a ton of options and gameplay mechanics to find your way through. You can chain different abilities in order to remain stealthy, or follow a m...

Four new images show off the heavily guarded Port of Korrangar, airships in flight, and the impish nature of our green-skinned thief himself.
