Final Dev Letter & FAQ
2025-01-29
Explore a vast open world, rendered with the award-winning Apex engine, featuring a full day/night cycle with unpredictable weather, complex AI behavior, simulated ballistics, highly realistic acoustics, and a dynamic 1980’s soundtrack.
Experience an explosive game of cat and mouse set in a huge open world. In this reimagining of 1980’s Sweden, hostile machines have invaded the serene countryside, and you need to fight back while unravelling the mystery of what is really going on. By utilizing battle tested guerilla tactics, you’ll be able to lure, cripple, or destroy enemies in intense, creative sandbox skirmishes.
Go it alone, or team-up with up to three of your friends in seamless co-op multiplayer. Collaborate and combine your unique skills to take down enemies, support downed friends by reviving them, and share the loot after an enemy is defeated.
All enemies are persistently simulated in the world, and roam the landscape with intent and purpose. When you manage to destroy a specific enemy component, be it armor, weapons or sensory equipment, the damage is permanent. Enemies will bear those scars until you face them again, whether that is minutes, hours, or weeks later.

A raspy voice answered: “She showed up. Didn’t speak. Played those maracas like she was trying to crack the sky. Then the power went out. When the lights came back, she was gone. So were my good extension cords.”
The landlord was still alive. A tired woman in Arizona named Mrs. Gable.
Leo closed the book. He didn’t call Finch. Instead, he checked All Categories one last time—for flights home. He had a maraca to return to its owner, and a quiet librarian who looked like she knew how to start a rainstorm.
