Team Bondi’s upcoming game, Whore of the Orient gets the first gameplay footage.
The video below gives us a first look at the lead character, combat, gunplay and city of the open-world action title:
Plot:
“Shanghai, 1936. Whore of the Orient. Paris of the East. The most corrupt and decadent city on the planet, where anything can be had or done for the right price. Plaything of Western powers who greedily exploit the Chinese masses. Boiling pot of Chinese nationalism, with the Kuomintang ruthlessly trying to suppress Communism and the labour movement.
Home to the International Police Force, a group of Western cops hopelessly trying to keep the lid on and keep the peace.”
After the release of L.A. Noire, Team Bondi split with Rockstar Games and was acquired by Australian production company Kennedy Miller Mitchell, well known for three Mad Max films, and the two Happy Feet films.
The studio received $200,000 from Australian government for the project in June following alleged lay-offs earlier this year.
Whore of the Orient is being developed for Xbox One, PS4 and PC.

looks cool
I wonder why the companies had to split.
They were great with LA. Noire, cos this kinda looks less realistic.
I had always hoped to work with Team Bondi/ Rock star in fleshing out my unique game idea
I know I’m late to the party here but I was just thinking what happened to this game? I haven’t heard any news in 2 years on this. Is it dead or delayed?
We haven’t heard anything since 2013, not sure what is going on, but it is still in development.
