Theorycraft Games has revealed SUPERVIVE (previously codenamed ‘Project Loki’) as the title of their first game, which will enter open beta in late 2024. SUPERVIVE is a neon-apocalyptic hero BR, set in an improvisational action sandbox where strategic, explosive shootouts meet a new era of storm chasing hunters – all with the aim of becoming the world’s next “10,000-hour game” for competitive squads. In celebration, Theorycraft is hosting their largest public playtest from June 27 to July 4. Players can pre-register here.
Key Features Include:
– An Improvisational Action Sandbox: SUPERVIVE embraces open-ended abilities, powers, items, and world interactions, as well as physics-based combat and movement, allowing for expressive and intuitive action and traversal.
– Combat and movement is easy to pick up, but also allows for endless depth and challenge in optimization
– Play With Friends: Players can choose a number of ways to play, including a 4-player squad, 10 teams per lobby battle royale; a 2-per-squad duos battle royale with 20 teams; and 4v4 deathmatches.
– Build Your Team of Storm Chasing Hunters: There are currently 15 hunters available, with more in-development for launch. While hunters do fall into one of three major archetypes (fighters, controllers, and supports), all are designed to be self-sufficient playmakers. All hunters have unique abilities (4 abilities, 1 ultimate, and a passive) and are all unlocked through regular play.
– You’re Never Out Until You’re Out: There are many ways to bring your team back, including team-wide resurrection beacons, picking up downed allies in the middle of a fight, and even the ability to revive dead allies after the action has settled. That combined with SUPERVIVE’s high lethality and playmaking depth, it’s always possible to make that winning play.
– Map-based Objectives and Storm Shifts: Each game can feature a random ‘storm shift’ that alters game variables—such as bullet trains, which place three high-speed, lethal trains on the map; nomadic storms, which move the available playspace across large distances; and more! Unique biome-specific monsters, bosses, and other game-changing mechanics come together for a world of systematic anarchy.
– Beyond Launch: Theorycraft will forever be developing the game alongside the community – and the work won’t stop at launch. Expect new hunters, new storm shifts, new biomes, new powers, and lots, lots more—all for free!
