With hundreds of players on a single server, real meaningful character progression, an in-depth narrative, and a rich vibrant and changing world driven by the players’ actions, Population Zero will raise the bar for what it means to be a multiplayer survival experience.
Population Zero is a distinctive blend of survival and MMO set on the planet Kepler, an alien world far on the periphery of mankind’s own knowledge. As with all frontiers, the world will resist those who try to explore it, plumb it for resources, and vie to uncover its secrets. The creatures that inhabit Kepler will become for the player not just a source of valuable resources, but clever and skillful enemies, each of which is unique in its behavior and abilities and has its own role in the ecosystem of the planet.
Research a plethora of technologies to drive you and your faction’s fortunes higher. Uncover a deeply shrouded mystery of the world before you arrived. Develop your character to be unique among the thousands, in a world where the actions you take drive your progress in a multitude of skills. Population Zero is a survival game unlike any other, an MMO different from those before it, and an experience that will bring friends closer together over the shared goal of exploring and conquering the new frontier.
Enplex Games are running a new Closed Beta this weekend, showing off a new mob, Baby Sahrim, fog of war, new story quests, and what's more important - better perfomance and higher frame rate. And many more smaller additions and fixes.
If you a founder or a beta-tester, you can enjoy the game for the entire weekend starting March 6th.
Players who are not CBT participants yet can apply for access here. Current testers will be able to download the client here when it becomes available.
These are our goals for the upcoming CBT:
- to test our server infrastructure;
- to see if the chosen number of concurrent players per server matches the gameplay density, resource and space sufficiency;
- to test PvE and combat mechanics since the mob behavior has been reworked.
