Fallen Earth is a post-apocalyptic massively multiplayer online game that mixes first person shooter and role playing game style mechanics. The game is set in 2156, one hundred years after the world is brought low by a plague known as Shiva that killed 99% of the population. The game takes place in and around the Grand Canyon, one of the few habitable places left on Earth, which makes it a place many are willing to kill to control. Our world is one where mankind teeters on the edge of extinction, clinging to the bones of the old world while trying to recover their lost secrets. It's a world of scavengers and desperation. The players are those who choose to rise above the hardships of this new world and work towards a better world, or decide the old world was corrupt and all signs of it must be erased completely.

"We wanted to share a bit of inside news with our community about an upcoming change to our team. We would like you to join us in taking a moment to bid farewell to Lee Hammock (aka “The Beard Man”) as he begins his new position as the Story Designer for Gargantuan.

Though we will miss Lee, this is an exciting opportunity for him to work on a new property that is near and dear to his heart and we are thrilled and blessed to have worked with him over the past four years in shaping the story of Fallen Earth.

We are continuing our vision for Fallen Earth as we work hard to meet deadlines for upcoming update 1.4 and as we press on toward Sector Four. We have some exciting months ahead, and we look forward to sharing them with you."
