Early Access to
MEMORIES OF MARS is now underway
on Steam,
offering a first opportunity to play Limbic Entertainment's Windows survival/adventure
set on the red planet. The
launch trailer shows off gameplay, emphasizing the game's shooter elements.
Here's word on what else to expect:
Featuring a rich and vast environment
to explore and introducing a unique “seasons” mechanic to enhance the
competition of surviving the Red Planet, Memories of Mars sets the stage for an
otherworldly gaming experience designed to keep gameplay fresh. In the unique
Seasons, which sets Memories of Mars apart from other survival games, death will
be inevitable for even the most skilled players as periodic catastrophic solar
flares wipe the planet’s surface of all life and player-made infrastructures on
an ongoing basis. Some of the talents and abilities learned through the season
can be backed up and carried over by a series of clones, allowing players the
ability to download previous memories of how to build and craft to get a head
start on surviving the next season.
Memories of Mars will task players with surviving the harsh and unforgiving
landscape of the Red Planet while building a habitable homestead and competing
against other players and enemy NPCs for resources and opportunities. Players
can team up to explore, gather resources and build defense bases or go rogue and
explore numerous locations including abandoned terraforming towers, mining
sites, caves, canyons, meteor impact sites and more. Seasons will also serve to
make the map feel new, with familiar places rearranged in new locations,
exciting points of interest never-before-seen, added blueprints for creating
different weapons and modules, novel enemies, updated events and more.
