About
Join Alex on her deadly solo-mission to expose the mysteries of planet Vandermire. Experience a truly transformative third-person shooter and absorb organic abilities to expand your combat and movement capabilities beyond anything you’ve seen before. The entire universe is at stake.
A Mission That’s Expected to Be Your Last
Planet Vandermire, the ancestral home of the extinct “Magna” species, is suspected to be the source of the ever expanding Corruption; a universal threat to all life in the universe. Alex is “lucky” number 13 of volunteering Space Crusaders, ready to give their life in deadly solo-expeditions on the planet’s surface. Mission “Exodus” empowers individuals with a unique high technology AI suit in order to gather as much information as possible, before falling to the Corruption. It is hoped that with each attempt, scientists can increase the time of survival on the surface and find a solution to contain the Corruption.
Key Features
- Collect Alien Morphs to Expand Your Abilities – While Alex explores the planet, every enemy encounter can change your experience! By absorbing alien “morphs,” you gather new moves and powers that can literally turn the world upside down.
