In Precursors the players take on the role of a young fighter pilot who immediately becomes embroiled in a tumultuous war that will engulf the cosmos. Using an assortment of crushing weapons and perks, ranging from organic guns use to buggy driving, the player and his three teammates will set out to uncover a secret of ancient races that threatens the balance of powers in the galaxy.
Twelve beautiful and detailed planets, a variety of space ships, flyers and other vehicles, and a host of weapons ranging from standard plasma rifles to bizarre spider cannons, are among the features that make “The Precursors” unique. A well-balanced blend of role-playing engagement and dynamic FPS-style action in a completely open world are characteristic for “The Precursors.” The thrill of exploring space, leading adventures on faraway planets and fighting in merciless wars between rival galactic empires makes for a compelling experience.
The title is a finalist of Intel’s Game Demo 2008 contest and will be released in Russia/CIS in March 2009.
