A brand new shooter game is making its way to PC soon. And it features a world where the paranormal collides with nuclear fallout.
Antistatic Studios, a new indie developer, just unveiled their debut project titled Phantom Line. A coop-shooter game, Phantom Line has a playable demo on Steam that will run until June 18th.
The cooperative first-person shooter (FPS) is set in a chilling post-nuclear Eastern Europe. The game throws players into a world ravaged by war, where a new threat emerges. Anomalies, terrifying creatures, and unexplainable phenomena have breached through tears in space-time.
In it, players take the role of an elite soldier, the Operator, working under Mortfield Industries. The game's story kicks off when the Operator has been tasked to investigate one of its research facilities in Eastern Europe.
After it went off-grid, it is up to the Operators not only to shed light on the mystery but also to deal with a world torn by years of conflict and paranormal activities.
"With fire and chaos spreading quickly, you and your friends are on the frontline of humanity as its last defense," developers said.
Phantom Line's core mechanics featured a co-op (1-4) shooter, and procedurally-assisted open world.
"Phantom Line is our first game, which grew from our passion for the supernatural and war stories and was inspired by some of the biggest online paranormal communities," said Antistatic.
The developers have also recently opened a limited early demo version of the upcoming game. Called the Pre Alpha - June 2024 Playtest, PC players can access it until June 18th.
"Feedback is very important for our development process. We want to invite playtesters to include their input from the very start and shape the future of the game," developers said.
As of this writing, the demo for Phantom Line can only be played on a Windows PC using a mouse and keyboard. / ###
