Epsilon is a hybrid stealth-action near-future tactical shooter where pre-planning and commanding your squad is essential for survival. Through high intensity kinetic operations, Epsilon is the unit tasked by Unipol to counter Eastern European militias engaged in human trafficking.
The Alpha Assault Pack adds an additional weapon and the brand new Terrarum Data map, playable in Epsilon’s Story Mode and the score-centric Elimination Mode.
When the Epsilon team discovers evidence linking high-ranking Unipol officials to Vindinberg members financing human trafficking, they infiltrate the Terrarum Data center to extract essential intel. The Terrarum Data center is a four story underground facility, with long corridors and a strong focus on verticality, rewarding players who employ methodical tactics.
In addition to the Terrarum Data map, the RG-9 Submachine Gun has been added to loadouts. Numerous improvements have been made to EPSILON, including a new Radial menu for on-the fly squad commands, partial controller support, improved ally and enemy AI, and added Enemy Patrol patterns in Elimination Mode.
Fans interested in trying out Epsilon can check out the Early Access version of the game on Steam for $7.99.
Craig Gilmore (an artist with credits from Marvel, DC Comics, Ubisoft, The Walking Dead, Revolution, and more) will be providing an accompanying graphic novel for the game, which will also serve as the in game cinematics, delving into a storyline heavily inspired by themes in the ongoing crisis in Eastern Europe and the growing sense of Oligarchy in America in connection with groups like the Bilderberg’s. A unique cast of diverse team members, which in a first for a contemporary shooter, contains no Americans, will drive the story forward.
Music will be another strong focus, with Rich Douglas scoring an ethnically inspired soundtrack for a unique musical feel. Rich has worked on titles such as Insurgency and Shadowgate, and brings a unique flavor to the audio in the game.
Previously, Serellan has announced that all Kickstarter backers of their last title, Takedown: Red Sabre will also be receiving Epsilon for free. Unlike past projects, Serellan is self-publishing Epsilon as a completely independent studio. The price point for Epsilon has yet to be announced.
Serellan, which is a disabled veteran owned company, is working with several veteran groups to donate portions of the proceeds from the game to benefit veterans and active-duty military members.
