Another major installment in the series of brutal and bloody shooters developed by the Croatian Croteam studio. The story of this part is set before the events of the third installment, in which Sam had to face the forces of the main antagonist - Mental in a futuristic, virtual version of ancient Egypt. Mental's goal was, obviously, to take over the Earth. However, the story in this new installment seems to be a bit more mature.

Serious Sam 4 for PC, PS4 and XONE is another major installment in the series of dynamic and bloody first person shooters. The first two installments (their HD remastered editions after nearly a decade) were released between 2001 and 2002. As usual, the game was developed by Croteam - a Croatian developer. Having released a well-received first person logic game The Talos Principle, the studio decided to return to their flagship series.

Story

The game is a prequel to the third installment in the series, in which Sam had to face Mental's armies in a futuristic version of Egypt. The creators hired Jonas Kyratzes to write the scenario for the game, who worked on the already mentioned The Talos Principle as well. As a result of this combination, the story in this installment is more mature in contrast to the previous games filled with adrenaline and testosterone.
