Ever since the game was initially announced
and showcased at GDC 2016, Earthfall has
been on our most anticipated list. Supporting
an action-packed co-operative first-person
shooter experience, players join a ragtag bunch
of survivors who band together to fight back
against an alien invasion. Utilizing a wide variety
of weapons and supplies, players must use
team-based tactics and defenses while exploring
the towns and wildernesses of the Pacific
Northwest.
With up to four players teaming up to survive
the alien infestation, Earthfall comes with robust
multiplayer support, in addition to sophisticated
A.I. teammates who stand ready to ensure a full
team at any time regardless of available players.
Somewhat similar to that 'other' game which
enables players to construct fortified structures to
fend off the alien threat, Earthfall offers a rather
different and unique 'Build Your Defenses'
approach enabling players to strategically deploy
barricades to block the enemy hordes and install
turrets anywhere in the levels to the create the
perfect alien killing zones.
Impressively, Earthfall allows players to print
their weapon of choice by using advanced 3D
printers found within the game to print more than
twenty different weapons to use against the
vicious alien enemies.
At launch Earthfall will offer multiple
campaigns, each telling a story across several
missions, allowing players to dive in and
experience diverse settings and mission types
across an authentic depiction of the Pacific
Northwest. Adding to the game intense
skirmishes, there are plenty close encounters of
the brutal kind as deadly aliens come in all
shapes and sizes, from massive waves of drone
attacking to towering behemoths spitting plasma,
making every experience different each time you
play. This is also supported by unpredictable
enemies and a dynamic spawn system.
Even before learning about the games
specific console support, Earthfall was already
shaping up to be sure eye-pleaser, however
developer Holospark sealed the deal when they
announced that its upcoming co-operative
shooter will support 4K resolution with HDR on
PlayStation 4 Pro and Xbox One X, as well as
High Dynamic Range color (or HDR) on Xbox
One S.
