NEW BEN 10 REBOOT 2017 VIDEO GAME PICTURES!


Ben 10 Video Game Cover Art
One month after the announcement of a Ben 10 reboot video game by Outright Games, Amazon has revealed images and information regarding the fall release. The game will allow players to transform into all ten of Ben's aliens and use them to fight enemies and solve puzzles, similar to Protector of Earth and Ben 10: Omniverse the video game. It is currently unknown rather there will be coop mode.

The description of the video game states:

It's Hero Time! Some of Ben's most infamous villains are back, and they're threatening the world- and it's up to you to stop them. Unlock and transform into all 10 of Ben's alien forms as you take on dangerous opponents like Zambezi, Queen Bee, and the Weather heads, and save the day with a combination of explosive combat and fun, mind-bending puzzles as you unravel three all-new episodes.

The cover art shows Ben along with his ten aliens on a desert. The background shows some villains that Ben will have to defeat, including Zombozo, Queen Bee and a never before seen Weatherhead, could it be their boss? Check out some of the gameplay images below.



The Title Screen
The title screen shows Ben sitting on a log at a campsite while looking at his Omnitrix. The Rustbucket is in the background. Presumably there will be multiple animations that Ben will do during the title screen.


Here we can see Heatblast in action. His model is really well done and his head is on point. The Alien Boost bar is very low, indicating that it can be refilled somehow, perhaps by beating up enemies? Unlike the older Ben 10 game titles, the Omnitrix is located on the bottom left of the screen instead of the top left
Diamondhead appears to be doing some sort of combo attack that shoots diamonds around him, hitting anything in its path.


Four Arms is using his strength to break a door. His model looks very weird in this animation.

XLR8 is seen doing a mission of getting a 22 hit combo to move on in the level, one of the many many challenges in the video game.

All the images seems to take place in the same level with Zombie Clowns, which can only mean Zombozo. There only seems to be four different enemy variants in Zombozo's level.

Judging by the four Omnitrix lights that glows when Ben is in alien form, I'm assuming that the game will only allow Ben to transform into four aliens at a time, a tradition that started with Ben 10: Cosmic Destruction. There's currently no info on what the blue bars or the Alien Boost bar do, but it is possible that Alien Boost is used for combo moves and the blue bars represent lives left.

It's very strange that Outright Games chose Queen Bee as a boss instead of someone more memorable, like Steam Smythe, Doctor Animo or Lord Decibel. But overall, Outright Games did a great job at modeling and I really like the cel-shaded design they are going for. They also adapted the Ben 10 reboot's background style very well. However, the GUI is very unprofessional looking and they could had chosen a better font. Stock images of aliens appearing while Ben is transformed as them is also a bit distracting. Hopefully the Ben 10 video game will be as good as Protector of Earth and VIlgax Attacks. Maybe in the future there will be DLC with Vilgax and Gax as an unlockable alien.

The Ben 10 reboot video game will be available on Xbox One, PS4 and the Nintendo Switch. It is now up for pre-order on amaazon. Outright Games has developed multiple video games based on licensed properties such as Adventure Time, Kung Fu Panda, How to Train your Dragon and Barbie.
