Features
- TEAM CO-OP - You are a Gatewalker, the chosen one, who can go through the gate and explore the other side. Team up with up to 4 players to face the team-based survival. Fight terrifying monsters, survive extreme weather conditions, do the job ordered by the mysterious Guild, and what is the most important… stay alive!
- WORLD EXPLORATION - Explore many procedurally generated worlds with unique terrain, plants, and creatures. Discover new resources and crafting materials. Face various environmental hazards: toxic atmosphere, lack of oxygen, terrifying darkness, penetrating cold, and much more… Each world type introduces a unique survival mechanic that makes players adapt. Finding food, water or wood to start a fire may be impossible to do. Plan carefully what to bring with you on the expedition, no one really knows what is on the other side of the Gate.
- TEAM SURVIVAL - Surviving alone in an unknown world is really hard. But with teammates at your back, at least you have a chance. Share the responsibilities: start a fire to let others warm up, build a tent to let your mates rest, warn them about the dangers lurking at night… The key to surviving is cooperation between you and your team.
- SKILL BASED COMBAT - Isometric skill-based combat with a non-target system. All skills may be missed! Good positioning during combat, balanced use of skills, good timing and team synergy are crucial to victory.
- CRAFTING - First, choose an item to craft. Next, discover the appropriate recipe. Raid different worlds to gather required resources. Find or create a crafting station. Finally, build the item and use it!
- YOU ARE WHAT YOU WEAR - There are no predefined character classes. Each item gives you a unique set of skills, so combine them to suit you best. Take heavy armor, and healing staff to support your mates in the front line with your toughness and healing powers. Remember, you are, what you wear!
- PROCEDURAL WORLDS GENERATION - Each time you and your team will face a different, procedurally generated world. This gives you countless opportunities, constant challenges, and no victory schemes! Always stay cautious, adapt your strategy, make fast decisions, face the consequences, because you never know what waits behind the corner.
