Microsoft’s Phil Spencer has seen Sunset Overdrive in action, and apparently it is “looking very good.” Spencer tweeted some of his observations of the game earlier today, revealing that not only is the gameplay looking “great”, but that, graphically, Sunset Overdrive is also looking wonderful.
Although what Spencer saw was only a daily build, apparently what he saw in action looked better than the already beautiful E3 trailer.
You can see both of the tweets below in context.

@XboxP3 @Mushlikeahusky @RealKLobb Was the E3 trailer any indication for the games actual graphics?

@TuamJohn @Mushlikeahusky @RealKLobb I thought what I saw yesterday (just a daily built) looked better than E3 trailer.
Sunset Overdrive is an upcoming third person action game from Insomniac, featuring frantic online combat, as well as an offline campaign. It caught our eye at last year’s E3, and, if the trailer is any indication, it should feature some fast paced fun for the Xbox One.
The official Twitter account for Sunset Overdrive also gave a slight update on when we’ll see new info or possibly new info on the game. In response to a question posted by another Twitter user asking how many “weeks or months”, the account replied with “they are getting fewer and fewer by the day.” The game is still planned for a 2014 release which was also noted by the Twitter account. Both of these Tweets can also be viewed below.
