Planet of the Apes is trying its hand in video games once again with the Planet of the Apes: Last Frontier, revealed today.

Last Frontier takes its inspiration from the latest trilogy of movies, specifically taking place about a year after the events of the film Dawn of the Planet of the Apes according to IGN's preview. The game is a story of survival as apes find themselves in need of help from humans during a cold winter that leaves them without food.

Both humans and apes will be playable in the game, and players' decisions will affect the story of the game, including causing the deaths of some characters. With a length of about two to three hours, the game is meant to be played multiple times.
