Strike Vector EX is blasting onto the PlayStation 4 on Tuesday, August 30th. An Xbox One version is also in the works, however, no release date has been announced.
View the trailer below:
"Strike Vector EX is not just an aerial combat game, but a fast-paced, mech-style FPS dogfight," said developer Paul Chadeisson. "You can blaze into combat at full speed, instantly stopping in stationary mode, spin around like in Descent, and blast your enemies. We provide you with a third- and a first-person perspective and — once you get the hang of the first-person view — you’ll never turn back. That’s when Strike Vector gets really fun.
"We built the PS4 version from the ground up. We don’t think of it as a sequel — it’s really a brand new version of the game. Strike Vector EX runs on the Unreal Engine 4, targeting 1080p at 60 frames per second. It features a full single-player mode with cutscenes, including 15 missions, plus mini-games and side-missions such as survival, attack, destroy, and duel, all with relentless AI.
"We added a Skirmish mode — an offline multiplayer mode packed with nasty AI bots. And we have given gamers the option to fully customize the look of their Vector and their weapons. So if you like to snipe from afar, plow people with a Gatling gun, or prefer the up-close blast of a shotgun, you’re in luck. There are up to 10,000 different weapons, special items, and armor combinations!
"And, of course, we have the ultimate mode of them all: multiplayer for up to 12 players on 15 maps. This is the heart of our game."
