The highly anticipated online shooter Pioner, being developed by the Russian studio GFA Games, recently received an impressive gameplay trailer. The developers showcased the diverse post-apocalyptic world of the game and its characters for the first time. The release of Pioner is still planned for 2023 without a specific date, but the project’s creators are ready to share more interesting details about the game now.
As noted by GFA Games, their project will not feature a traditional open world, but the world of Pioner will be vast and diverse. According to the developers, the shooter’s world is divided into large regions, with some areas reaching 10 km² in size. Locations will differ from each other both visually and in terms of content within the regions. At the moment, the studio has finished working on 5 major settlements with their own unique designs and populations. Quests and events are currently being deployed in these cities, which will guide players through different zones.
In addition, GFA Games also shared other details about the game:
The soundtrack’s duration will soon exceed 2 hours. The collective Ansia Orchestra is responsible for the game’s main theme.
GFA Games has doubled its team of developers from seven different countries over the past year.
The developers are not focusing on the size or scale of the game world – interesting activities are a priority.
“The Blue Tide” is an energy discharge from a station. The exploration of Tides is an important plot theme in Pioner.
Progression in the world is closely tied to the advancement of expeditions into the depths of the island. Players will repeatedly take on the role of a pioneer.
Death and the rebirth of your character are justified within the game and accompanied by unique gameplay mechanics.
In each PvE-oriented region, there is a so-called “Initiative Quest” – an important story mission or series of tasks whose completion can influence the state of affairs in the region or change the balance of power.
For solo players and parties who want to deeply engage in PvE and story activities, special functionality is provided to bring the experience of the game closer to a solo or cooperative adventure.
Pioner is being created on Unreal Engine 4 for PC. The shooter’s tentative release is planned for this year.
