The year is 2280 AE. As a lone marine stranded in an infected Martian colony, the Corporation has designated you MIA. Left for dead with an insurgent drone as your only ally, all that stands between you and freedom is a seemingly unstoppable army of mutants.

In addition to customizable skill-trees and upgradeable weaponry, players must use the drone's abilities wisely, making fight-or-flight decisions to manipulate threat levels and balance risk versus reward.

Using 'Scout', for example, will send the drone out for supplies, but make the fight more difficult, while 'Taunt' causes the drone to lure in larger waves of weaker enemies. 'Bomb' will decimate your enemies, but the next wave will push even harder. And, while 'Block' may give you some breathing room, it also has a nasty habit of attracting bosses to the fight.

Will your choices lead you to freedom... or your doom?

CIRCLE Entertainment is delighted to announce that Solstice Chronicles: MIA, developed by Ironward, will arrive on the Nintendo Switch eShop in 2018.

Solstice Chronicles: MIA belongs to the dark universe of The Red Solstice.  At your side is Saffron, an unusual drone made by the Insurgency, and an unlikely companion for a Corporation Marine. She acts as a true AI: she has emotions and may snap under stress. You must work with this drone in order to survive, getting to know her story as you discover your own.

Key Features:

• Tactical, twin-stick shooter including two-player couch co-op.
• Story-based, 18 mission campaign branching from the events of The Red Solstice.
• Survival mode in which you decide when to EVAC, and when to push for bigger rewards.
• Customize skill-trees of four classes - Assault, Demolition, Hellfire, and Terminator.
• Upgradeable weaponry including shotguns, rocket launchers, flamethrowers, and more.
• Use your drone's abilities to aid in combat, manage threat levels, and scavenge supplies.

Solstice Chronicles: MIA is currently availabe for PC (Steam), with a PS4 launch coming later.
