'Gatewalkers' Accepting Alpha Sign-ups - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on March 25, 2020 @ 11:06 a.m. PDT

Gatewalkers is a cooperative action-survival production with RPG elements, in which players will travel through different worlds to save their own.

In the game you take on a role of one of the “Gatewalkers”. You are a member of an elite organization called Guild, which, in order to save their homeland, explores distant corners of the universe. In Gatewalkers you will explore procedurally generated lands and face their inhabitants or other challenges, such as extreme weather conditions or toxic air.

During your journey through the gates you will face various dangers and all you can depend on are your reflexes, the ability to move around the battlefield, plan you actions and cooperate. Enemies that you will face will require you to adjust your strategy and equipment. In Gatewalkers, with the change of your equipment comes a change of your fight style - all the skills are attributed to particular elements of your armor and weapons.

The survival part of the game will expose RPG lovers to new challenges, which are rare in this genre. Looking for resources needed to craft new weapons, maintaining good mental health or caring for other basic needs of the character are only some of the offered mechanics.

Gatewalkers smoothly blends a survival game with RPG elements, creating a one-of-a-kind combination of game mechanics. Embark on an extraordinary journey, solo or with other players. Explore procedurally generated maps, face monsters lurking in the darkness, survive in toxic air and create your own unique build.


The trailer is also a way to celebrate another important event - launch of new alpha version of the game, open for newsletter subscribers. Alpha will take place on March 26th - 29th. The Polish studio, A2 Softworks, is constantly testing the game, building on feedback and suggestions of the growing Gatewalkers community.

In the newest alpha build players will have the opportunity to explore an ice land not shown to the public before, with a new survival mechanic, new monsters, new boss and even larger emphasis on cooperation, which now involves not only fights, but also interactions. Additionally, the alpha will feature an expedition, which you will be able to finish only in cooperation with other players. The game now offers also more weapons, equipment and a new skill tree.

"New alpha tests are an important step for us - said Andrzej Stroiński from A2 Softworks. - We are constantly introducing a lot of changes and improvements, which could not be done without the input of those that will be affected the most - the players. We would like to thank all of them for their support! "
