'Project Genesis' (ALL) Announced - Screens & Trailer

Combining intense FPS gameplay and space combat, Project Genesis is a grand-scale deep space survival that has players piloting massive spacefaring machines of destruction and infiltrating their enemies' ships in the pursuit of galactic domination.

Project Genesis is set within a persistent universe that’s part of 8 Circuit Studios’ growing ecosystem based on the concept of the Metaverse — a series of interconnected virtual worlds and experiences without boundaries.

Project Genesis will mix FPS and starship combat, as players prowl the space lanes in massive star cruisers, duking it out with one another, then launching boarding parties to capture the enemy ships. During boarding actions, the game will switch to FPS mode, for an in-your-face combat experience. 

In Project Genesis, players inhabit an A.I. that learns that it must choose between self-sacrifice to save the last vestiges of the human race, or opt for self-determination to embark on its own destiny. This AI’s quest for preservation sets players out into the stars to pilot space cruisers and engage in furious combat that allows them to destroy their enemies using advanced technologies, fortify their ships from damage, and board enemy ships.

Once the boarding party lands on the enemy ship, players will enter a first-person perspective as they infiltrate and eradicate enemy forces from the inside out. Destroying control points and clearing the ship gives one control over their enemy’s ship. Capturing ships and completing missions generate payouts to the victor, which take the form of XP, weapons, ammo, and in-game credits.

“Project Genesis is going to be a perfect fit for gamers looking for an experience that combines intense first-person shooters with white-knuckle third-person space combat,” said Terry Hammer, Producer, of 8 Circuit Studios. “It’s going to be far more than just a space shooter, we are going to push the whole experience by integrating the Ethereum blockchain - allowing players the ability to carry digital assets they earn and acquire, like ships and weapons, into other games.”

Project Genesis is in development for PC and consoles.
