As captains of mercenary ships, players must wage war for the highest bidder on the fringe: a region of space heavily fought over for its wealth of resources and strategic importance. Fringe Wars puts players in direct command of massive capital starships and pits them in 5v5 tactical MOBA warfare.
Fringe Wars allows players to choose from a variety of ships each with its own unique stats, loadout, abilities and role. As captains earn fame and fortune in the fringe, they are able to heavily customize their ships in a variety of ways. Each ship has various modules that can be swapped out with other purchasable equipment such as weapons and shields. Captains can also visually customize their ships in detail.
Ship customization is set to be an in-depth, meaningful experience that will allow players to make each ship their own allowing players to kit out their ships to support their chosen class and playstyle.
Fringe Wars gives players deep customization through both ship choice and personal tweaking. You’ll never be lacking options with the various ship types you can explore.,Each ship focuses on a specific role in team-based combat. From heavy hitting damage focuses attack vessels to long range support, there will be a ship for everyone's chosen playstyle. Alongside the variety of ships comes the depth of the customization which gives players the accessibility of multiple weapons, defenses, and support modules. The classes and their respective customization options allow players to be ready for the challenges that await in Frontline and Conquest game modes.
Conquest Mode gives the 5v5 combat the twist it needs. After choosing how to customize your ship, you’ll be taken to the battlefield with four comrades ready for battle. The map will have numerous important objectives including outposts, space stations, and mining faculties. Capturing the mining facility gives you more resources that let you upgrade your ship faster than the enemy. If you can capture the space station too, you’ll be able to reduce cooldowns and improve the entire fleet’s performance. Be wary, however. If you don’t balance your team appropriately, the mission will end in disaster. Be prepared to work together if you want to win.
Frontline Mode streamlines the combat to give one very clear objective: kill or be killed in a straight up team deathmatch. The battlefield is narrow, allowing no escape. If you don’t act fast, your ship will be smoldering wreckage in the depths of space. The deathmatch might be quick, but that doesn’t mean the tension will be low. If you’re strong enough to stare death in the face, fly to the frontline to prove your worth.
Fringe Wars will be released on Steam’s Early Access in the fourth quarter of this year followed by a full release on PC and PS4.
