Asym Altered Axis pits a real-time strategy player against up to 5 players playing cooperative stealth action.

The strategy player sets the deadly stage with a variety of traps and units while the action player team has to then infiltrate the level to steal the valuable Cell Nexus. The battle starts in total darkness with the strategy player searching for the action players from the skies, using the light trails generated from the action players as clues. Once the action players are discovered or the Cell Nexus is stolen, the stage suddenly lights up and all traps come alive, dramatically changing the pace of the game from tense stealth action into a flashy cat-and-mouse chase!

Who will prevail: the Action players who can steal the Cell Nexus and successfully escape, or the Strategy player who captures all Action players?

mixi, Inc.is gearing up for the first global Alpha test in Fall 2022 on Steam.

“We’re so excited to share Asym with the world!” said Yas Hayakawa, the producer of Asym Altered Axis. “Asym aims to break down the communication gap between players of different genre preferences and create a space where you and your friends can have fun together. We hope you’ll join our alpha test to experience a completely new cross-genre experience.”
