By Goon Raccoons 13 October

“Game had strong potential and wasted all hype by doing basically nothing in 6 months since releasing an extremely Alpha state game that needed at least another six months in the oven. See Full Review.”

About This Game

Following a mysterious event on a fictional Southeast Asian island, the entire area has been placed under international quarantine. With most of the civilian population evacuated under the supervision of the United Nations, three PMC factions are tasked by their enigmatic clients to explore the region, uncover its secrets, and retrieve anything of value.

DEPLOY IN A LIVING OPEN-WORLD

Dive into the ultimate extraction shooter set in a vast 42km² open world of the Democratic Republic of Lamang, inspired by the stunning landscapes of Laos. As a PMC operator, embark on tactical missions to complete tasks, secure high-value loot, and survive intense FPS firefights against rival factions and AI enemies.

SURVIVE REALISTIC COMBAT

Prepare for an immersive combat experience where precise real-world ballistics make every shot count. A unique health system simulates the human body, with injuries affecting perception and performance, forcing you to diagnose wounds and apply the right treatments to survive and support your team.

UNRAVEL A MATURE STORY

Immerse yourself in a mature story experience as you uncover the mysteries of Lamang. Through numerous missions, encounter a colorful cast of morally complex characters, each hiding secrets and pursuing their own agendas.
