Antistatic Studios that a demo playtest of their four-player cooperative FPS, Phantom Line, is now available on PC via their Discord server. Alongside this is a new trailer to give you a peek at what you鈥檙e ge馃惙馃挧tting into.
It鈥檚 a bit hard to get a good read on what Phantom Line really is, so let鈥檚 start from 馃拑the top. It鈥檚 a first-person shooter for馃専 1-4 players, set in an open-world environment. You鈥檙e an operative for a megacorporation who has been dispatched into an Eastern European country following a nuclear war. Okay, sounds familiar.
However, there鈥檚 also something called the H.U.S.K. that allows you to transfer your consciousness between artificial bodies. The trailer 饞€癲oesn鈥檛 really capture that very well, but there鈥檚 a gif on the store page that shows it in action. Maybe.
Phantom Line promises an open world full of dynamic events. You and your friends get a derelict ship as a base of operations and can show off your loot. There鈥檚 also crafting, because an artificial army runs on its stomach, 軎玸o you have to eat. The trailer shows a suspicious amount of bear violence, so you may be eating something pretty gamey.
To get in on the Phantom Line playtest, you鈥檒l need to sign up for their discord at . The full r馃惣elease date has yet to be announced.聽
