'Gray Zone' Gets Early Access Date, Reveals Story - Trailer

by Rainier on April 17, 2020 @ 12:00 a.m. PDT

Gray Zone is a narrative driven tactical RTS game, combining the best elements of classic RTS titles as well as incorporating RPG aspects.

Gray Zone is an odyssey of a slave who turned against his masters, set in our galaxy hundreds of years from now. Expect memorable characters, fun dialogs and lots of action!

Gray Zone combines the best elements from classic strategy games of the past, whilst adding in extra elements such as tactical mode, new physics, hero customization and many more.

Travel many years into the future and embark on the great adventure of Valern, a slave in the hands of a corrupt government who's destined for great things. Explore colonized planets of our galaxy, worlds rich in animals, creatures and characters. Help Valern face his foes who stand between him and the truth. Both in-game and cutscene dialogs are fully voiced in English.

In Gray Zone you command your heroes and other friendly units to avoid or defeat the enemy, to complete story objectives, mandatory or optional. You build fire teams, use machines, vehicles and weapons, collect and distribute items. Your goal is to choose the right combat strategy to minimize your losses whilst achieving a result. The game allows you to freeze time in "tactic mode", which gives you unlimited time to re-think your strategy and issue different orders to multiple units at one moment.

The comic book style story trailer shows a glimpse of the backstory for the protagonist Valern. How he started on his journey to the path of a hero, the savior of his people, the world he lived in and the people that influenced his life, both the good and the bad.

In development for more than two years, Gray Zone is now ready to be unveiled to the gaming public.

The Early Access version of Gray Zone will contain the first five of seven missions of the first chapter and is targeting a release onto Steam week commencing April 30, 2020 for $19.99.

The last two missions of this chapter will follow in an update a few months later. All of the core game features are complete and included in the Early Access launch version, as well as all voice-overs/cutscenes/dialogues/music/sound effects/physics effects etc. We'll be constantly working on new content and game improvements and we'll be adding them to Early Access as and when we feel they’re ready.

The full game will consist of four chapters, each consisting of six missions. Plus a small bonus mission in the first chapter. That's 25 missions in total. There are 2D Artworks and comics that chronicle the story’s progress between missions. The game also features its own electro-orchestral soundtrack.
