TimeShift is an upcoming sci-fi, first-person shooter from Vivendi Games for the PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. It is being developed by Saber Interactive, the same developers behind the game Will Rock, using a new proprietary engine. A few pieces of Will Rock carry over to TimeShift, from the way gibs are shown to some of the unique weapon designs.

Story
The start of the game opens up with a news report about the collapse of the building, with an underground establishment underneath it. A woman who was summoned by Aiden Krone is violently knocked unconscious after she sees him in the Alpha Suit (the original suit). The news report continues but a timeshift causes the building to rebuild itself. The anonymous protagonist is seen running through a number of corridors. Meanwhile Krone activates a bomb, and then using SSAM, disappears into time. The protagonist has reached his goal, the Beta Suit, which pierces his spine, injecting his blood with machines. While his colleague tells him that it is not ready, the bomb goes off. The suit activates as it reaches the room he is in, the resulting explosion sends him hurling though time, first flying erratically through the sky of a city then through a building.

What has been revealed of the TimeShift story is that modern-age scientists have begun to work on time travel. The antagonist Aiden Krone goes back in time using the alpha suit (the suit from the original build of TimeShift) and does not return. When he reaches the past, he remakes the world in his image, creating a dystopia where Krone rules. The anonymous protagonist uses the Beta time travel suit to travel back in time to see how Krone changed time and stop him.

Gameplay
The unique features of the game is that it allows the player to stop, rewind, or slow down time similar to the games Blinx: The Time Sweeper or Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. Unlike Prince of Persia , the player is not affected by time manipulations and can use their time powers to fight enemies or handle specific time-related puzzles. The rewind feature however, cannot be used in all situations as there are pre-scripted events which will happen regardless of the player intervention. It is normally enabled for situations that explicitly require it, such as an integral hallway being destroyed. However time will not rewind when a player dies, instead load checkpoint or restart mission features are integrated.
