Marauders joins the list of first-person shooters vying for the time and attention of players looking for the thrill of scavenging resources while dipping in and out of high-stakes tactical battles. Published by Team17 and developed by Small Impact Games, the title’s release date has been on the minds of players looking for a game centered around persistent loot.
Although Marauders’ is aiming for a spot next to the likes of Escape for Tarkov, its dieselpunk setting is sure to make it stand out from other games with a similar vibe. Read on below for everything we know about the game, including details about its release date, story, gameplay, and more.
Marauders Release Date
Marauders’ release date hasn’t been locked down yet, which means that we’ll have to wait a bit longer before we can shoot our way through the dark industrial environments of its full version.
Its closed alpha began on May 4, 2021, lasting for less than a week. Marauders’ early access release date was later locked down to October 3, 2022.
Marauders Story
Marauders’ is set in a dieselpunk-infused alternative version of the early ’90s in which The Great War never ended. Earth’s industrialization never stopped, leading many people to seek their fortune in space.
Known as Marauders, players take on the role of mercenaries, using their ships to reach hostile areas of the cosmos to salvage anything worthwhile.
Marauders Gameplay
As far as gameplay goes, Marauders’ matches revolve around high-stakes tactical first-person action and lots of scavenging.
Whether you’re exploring hulking frigates or moving asteroids, you’ll be able to upgrade your gear on the fly, which comes in handy when you inevitably encounter other players who’d much rather take your spoils for their own.
You can head in on your own or alongside up to three other players and, regardless of which option you pick, escaping is the only way to turn a profit.
Marauders also features persistent gear and experience, encouraging you to approach each mission with care.
In addition, you’ll get to take part in dogfights, use scavenged resources to upgrade or craft new ships, as well as take over those of other players through a proper application of force.
Marauders System Requirements
No word yet aside from the fact that the game will require a 64-bit processor and operating system.
Where can you buy Marauders and how much does it cost?
At the moment, Marauders is slated to launch on PC via Steam. It is currently available for purchase through its website for the price of $29.99, although that may change as we get closer to its full release.
