Darewise Entertainment announces Rokh, a multiplayer survival game set on Mars in development at Nvizzio Creations, said to be a spinoff of the team at Funcom that created Age of Conan. The Rokh website is online with more on the project, including this announcement teaser trailer showing off the game's Unreal Engine 4 graphics. Here's an introduction to the project:

Rokh is a futuristic sandbox survival experience, deeply rooted in scientific and authentic anticipation, where players will have to work together to overcome the numerous challenges they will face on planet Mars.

It is a persistent multiplayer game where everything proceeds from simulation and systems interaction instead of classic script-based interactions.

In the game, the only resources players have against hunger, thirst, the lack of atmosphere and radiation are creativity and cooperation.

Rokh brings an extensive crafting system - including housing, chemistry, programmation, robotics. To promote real social and economic dynamics between the colonists, these systems are designed to be impossible to be mastered by a single player.

The game will be powered by Unreal Engine 4 and will simulate dynamic weather, radiation spreads as well as differences in atmospheric pressure.
