FORMAT PS4, PS5 / ETA 2021 PUB TEAMKILL MEDIA / DEV TEAMKILL MEDIA
Something has gone horribly wrong at the Monad Quantum Research Facility, and it now stands aflame. But rather than taking centre stage as an unlucky member of staff, caught in the wrong place at the wrong time, you instead play as a first responder to the disaster.
You are firefighter Jacob Thomas and as a captain this ain’t your first rodeo… but fighting a blaze at a site at the mercy of a cosmically unknowable entity is a little bit above your pay grade. Alongside your partner, Shane Costa, you fly to the isolated facility to search for survivors and make sense of what has happened. But as this is a cosmic horror FPS with stealth elements, you have to navigate threats other than collapsed architecture or out-of-control flames.
Micah Jones, development studio TeamKill Media’s lead programmer, artist, and owner, says, “You’re gonna start with an axe. And then eventually you get the Halligan bar [a firefighter’s tool], and some other things. But you really don’t get a pistol until a certain point in the game where you get it from another character... or enemy.”
