'Fortified' (ALL) Reveals Final Two Characters - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on Feb. 17, 2015 @ 2:36 p.m. PST

Inspired by 1950s sci-fi films, Fortified is an action-packed base defense game that expands upon the genre by adding shooter mechanics and real-time strategy elements that are used in tandem to save Earth from robotic invaders.

Inspired by 1950s sci-fi films, players take control of one-of-four character classes as they fight swarms of robot invaders with an arsenal of Cold War era weapons and experimental alien technology.

Set in a bustling metropolis, Fortified has players protect the city by building a network of defensive structures, commanding army units and pulling the trigger on dangerous sky scraping attackers. Gamers can battle these enemies alone or team up with other players in four-player co-op mode, causing massive alien destruction.

Joining a jetpack wielding heroine Rocket Scientist and the All-American army Captain are the Agent, a secret government official whose knowledge of the Martians helps find weaknesses in the enemy, and Space Man, a man with the strength of a panzer tank who can leap high into the air and slam into the ground, sending enemies flying.

 


Key Features

  • Genre-Bending Gameplay – Fortified combines third-person shooter, real-time strategy and base defense mechanics to create intense gameplay against alien intruders. Additionally, Fortified allows players to command army units, adding another layer of strategy that is used in tandem with their shooting and defensive construction skills.
  • Retro Sci-Fi Flare – In Fortified, players are taken back to a chaotic time when giant robots and flyer saucers were attacking Earth on a daily basis. City defenders will immerse themselves in a metropolis that looks and feels like a sci-fi film from the 1950s.
  • Construct the Ultimate Defense – Prior to attacks, players will fortify their base by strategically building a network of defensive structures to thwart the oncoming waves of invaders. Along with solid defensive structures and shooting skills, leaders will direct units on the battlefield using a command system designed for third person gameplay. Expert deployment of troops is vital to preventing Earth form falling into extraterrestrial hands.
  • An Arsenal of Weapons at the Ready – They came from outer space with only one thing in mind: Destruction. Players must prevent this by using a vast array of weaponry, ranging from Cold War era guns to experimental Martian technology at their disposal.
  • Pulp Inspired Character Classes – Keeping with the 1950s feel, Fortified features four classes based on the prominent pulp character archetypes, including the heroine Rocket Scientist with a jetpack, a secret government agent with a vast knowledge of the Martians, the American hero Space Man, and the hardhitting Marine Captain.
  • Four-Player Co-Op – It can be difficult to face an alien force alone that’s why Fortified offers cooperative gameplay that requires team coordination and strategy to succeed in defeating the unworldly conquerors. There’s power in numbers, but victory only comes to those who work together.
  • Replayability – With dynamic levels and character progression, players will encounter special events that will keep fighters coming back for more robotic carnage
