Another PC hit is on it’s way to consoles. After it was revealed that Project Downfall is skipping PlayStation 5 last year, we now know when the game will launch on Xbox consoles and Nintendo Switch. And it’s soon.
Project Downfall is what is now commonly referred to as a ‘boomer shooter’. The game has a pixelated art style and is set in a cyberpunk world where the timeline is drastically different from ours. You’ll be thrown into the life of a not-so-regular citizen and smashed with gunfights left and right. According to developers MGP Studios and Solid9 Studio, both reflexes and tactical thinking will be of the essence.
Project Downfall: Mega Corporations and Other Assumed Badness
Obvious inspiration aside, you’ll take the role of a corporate employee, middle-class citizen. Privileged in eyes of many, you’re loaded with superpowers, various upgrades and medication. You can transcend human fragility and become Crimson Tide‘s hero in its time of need.
Corporations reign and citizens’ minds are manipulated with medications. In this world, this is how peace is kept. But not for long. Is this what the fight is really about?
With the European Union losing ground, the world is divided. On the horizon a new power rises above it all, welcoming new countries of Eastern Europe at its table: The Novorussian Federation. In an attempt to prove that both systems can coexist, a mega-city comes to life. When this mega-city falls into chaos who will save it?
On top of the action, the plot of Project Downfall is non-linear. The game offers as many as 12 different endings based on player choices and other prerequisites. These are completely detached from the occasional events and hidden secrets, so you’re free to hunt for the many Easter Eggs at your leisure.
Project Downfall will be released on Nintendo Switch, Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S consoles on 2nd February, 2024. The game is already available on Steam, where’s its received a ‘very positive’ review score.
