Shattered Skies Launches On Steam
Free Reign Entertainment's latest game, Shattered Skies, has officially launched on Steam. The title is an open world MMO shooter featuring full loot PvP and "dynamic PvE objectives." It features survival elements, such as needing to eat and drink, but they aren't as restrictive as other survival-esque titles.
The full set of features is as follows.
- Player vs. player (PVP) and player vs. environment (PVE) play
- First-person and third-person play perspectives
- A full reputation system that allows players to role-play as a good or bad guy
- Hundreds of unique lootable weapons, consumables, fortifications and cosmetics
- The ability to secure buildings with barricades, traps and other fortifications to keep players and aliens at bay
- Collectable rare items for saving and trading
- Fully customizable character cosmetics, including headwear, facewear, body, pants and shoes
Free Reign Entertainment Senior Game Designer Adam Skidmore had the following to say about the announcement.
Shattered Skies earned praise from gamers during both closed alpha and open beta, and the community sees the game as a fresh addition to the genre by changing the way they look at open world survival shooter titles. Thanks to our experience making open world games, we’ve focused on the features that players want most and on making the game more dynamic so gamers can return to the action quickly.
Shattered Skies can be purchased for a minimum of $24.99—temporarily discounted to $22.49 for launch—with higher tiers available. There are no microtransactions, paid DLC, or other fees, but higher tier editions provide extra benefits. Fortunately, you can upgrade to a higher tier at any time. Upgrades are even 25% off for launch week.
