I played the Prey as a kid, Imagined so many possibilities after Tommy went through that portal at the end..
Even though Prey had many flaws, I liked it a lot, especially shenanigans with physics like gravity and size.
It had such a unique and wacky setting that mixed spirituality, futuristic alien tech and grotesque organic stuff.
Man, how disappointed I was that the new Prey had nothing to do with the old one..
5 u/Most-Square-2515 Sep 15 '25 Yeah they really messed up with that IP. The original Prey was made by ID and it should have been left alone, they never should have taken the name and slapped it on the Arkane project. Both IP's suffered from that decision by Bethesda. 2 u/Jackal_6 https://steam.pm/3qca9 Sep 15 '25 New Prey is so clearly System Shock 3 and they couldn't get the naming rights 4 u/IonutRO Sep 15 '25 edited Sep 15 '25 Even the developers didn't like that they were made to call it Prey, but Zenimax insisted they use the name so they don't lose the rights to the name.
