Key Features:

  • Persistent World - Victories and defeats reshape the island’s control between PvP fights and NPC factions in real-time. Players will have a progression and crafting system to build the best gear, all of which stays in the world.
  • Player Bases - These strongholds host crafting, weapon production, and the ability to defend your home turf. Fortify your position, because both NPC factions and other players can raid your base. If it goes bad, do not worry, gather your allies and seek revenge with your own raid.
  • Dynamic Narrative Progression - Hand crafted story arcs seamlessly merge with an in-game mission system. Players are constantly drawn into conflict, not just against each other, but against the island’s relentless native factions. You may get a mission to capture an enemy leader, while others will get a mission to defend them. This interwoven story network gives Reapers their own personal story.
  • Combat and Skills - Precision gunplay, cover systems, and squad coordination are critical for battles. Reapers can also unlock and craft land, sea and air vehicles to make the world of Reaper Actual fully traversable.
  • Player-Driven Economy - Craft, trade, and influence a dynamic in-game economy which puts creativity into the Reapers hands. Reapers do not just build guns, but gear as well. Night vision goggles, comms devices, and vehicles may hold the key to victory.

Reaper Actual will be available on PC (Steam / Epic Game Store)  and reaperactual.com once it's launched. The version available from reaperactual.com will allow players to access an optional Web3 marketplace to buy and sell items they obtain in the game like gun skins, new Reaper skins, bases, and rare items they craft. This Web3 marketplace also allows players to make these same items and sell them to each other. Distinct Possibility Studios has selected the Etherlink blockchain for the Web3 portions of the game.
