In EXO One, the focus is shifted away from traditional sci-fi and space game tropes, such as space combat. Instead, it encourages a relaxed state of flow by using a gravity-based movement system to traverse and explore high sci-fi planets.

Pilot a spherical, gravity powered probe through awe-inspiring, enigmatic alien worlds. Watch cloud formations float across barren, lightning wracked fields. Drop beneath the waves of an ocean world. Ride the peaks of mountain tops and slide down alien dunes.

Upon reaching the first planet, players will encounter a surreal alien presence almost defying explanation. Accompanying the gameplay are highly atmospheric visuals, otherworldly audio and a hypnotic, electric guitar and synth-laden soundtrack.

EXO One is and continues to be inspired by the many discoveries of the Kepler spacecraft, and the mysteries of what may lay out in interstellar space for future explorers.

Exo One: Prologue is the beginning of a surreal and otherworldly adventure into the unknown, serving as an introduction to the mechanics and mood of the game.

“The Steam Summer Festival was a ton of fun, seeing so many people discovering the game for the first time, and I really wanted to give as many people as possible a taste of what Exo One is all about” said Jay Weston, developer of Exo One. “Releasing this Prologue will hopefully open up this thing I’m building to a whole world of new players before the big launch!”

Key Features:

• An array of unique, open worlds to explore, from traditional terrestrial planets to water worlds to gas giants
• Pilot a probe featuring multiple movement modes. Rolling, sliding, gliding/flying, with control over gravity and anti-gravity.
• Use these movement modes to build momentum, slide down dunes and catapult off hilltops.
• Glide through clouds and catch thermals that lift you high into alien atmospheres.
• Drop beneath the waves of boiling oceans under the glow of distant suns.
• Wind down and travel at your own pace. There are no challenges, wars or enemies.
• Listen to the sounds of the planets and contemplate the alien presence that occupies them.
• A minimalist yet mysterious narrative that allows players to form their own conclusions of the story.

EXO One is coming to Xbox Series X and PC (Steam) in Winter 2020.
