Developed by Airtight Games, which includes much of the team behind Crimson Skies, Dark Void is an intriguing combination of air combat and on-foot third-person action. The game kicks off when the protagonist, cargo pilot Will, flies through the Bermuda Triangle and winds up in an alien dimension where he discovers a hostile race known as The Watchers, who are subjugating humans for various nefarious ends.In addition to a range of traditional human and alien energy-based weapons, Will has a jetpack at his disposal that allows him to quickly traverse the Void. The area of the game we were privy to started out in some winding canyons that quickly opened up into a wider valley, where a dogfight between human and alien forces was taking place. Part of Will's wider objective was to infiltrate a nearby prison, presumably to rescue fellow humans; however, our immediate objective was to knock out nearby antiair batteries to allow friendly transports to drop troops at the entrance to the facility.
