As part of the March Xbox Partner Preview, we’ve got a at the gameplay of 11 Bit Studio’s The Alters. A game about employing yourself in space.
The Alters has you pওl♏ay as a miner named Jan Dolski, who gets stranded on another planet.
To stay alive, he needs to make use of a base that, unfortunately, requires𒉰 multiple trained people to run. Conveniently, the planet is also home to a substance called “Rapidium,” which a🍨llows Jan to make different versions of himself called Alters. Each one is an alternate version of himself with their past having been changed.
The trailer gives examples where Jan fights to save his marriage or doesn’t leave his hometown. He’s able to alter choices in his past and build them into these Alters, which gives them experience that he doesn’t have, so they can help him survive. However, the trailer points out that their different past🐟s can create friction between the crew, as they have their o꧅wn goals and personalities.
It looks like an in🅠teresting concept. I just have to wonder how the gameplay will balance out between management and exploration. Is there crafting? I ho♏pe not, because I’ve done enough of that.
The Alters is set to release on Xbox Series X|S and PC later🌠 this year.
