We know many of you are eagerly awaiting console release, but the truth is: we just weren’t happy with the state of the ports at this time, and we know it’s going to take some more work to get them where we need them. I also feel that its a question of pure luck how playable will be the game. But still it feels like an unfinished product - like the components of the game not working well together as a whole. Its not buggy in the terms of game crashes or hangs, thats fine. We also had to make the tough decision to move our console release to early Q4 2021, so that we can ensure we deliver the best possible experience for console players. But I cant just get rid of the feeling that its still 'work in progress' game. DLC 5, which is still in the early stages, will be more focused on vehicles and will release before the end of the year. Corrupter Horizons, introduces a new class, enemy, and an even more dangerous threat.

We also are in the midst of designing and developing another DLC to release later this Summer. We can’t wait to see how the Behemoth, our largest enemy ever, shakes up your campaigns! Aliens are not your only concern as you will come face to face with unpredictable interactions with human factions with their ideologies and rife with internal conflicts including kidnappings, assassinations, sabotage, military coups, and base defense missions.įestering Skies DLC features new missions and enemies, alongside an air combat interception mini-game and our largest enemy ever to shake up your campaigns on May 25, 2021! Along the way, you will encounter constant threats from an ever-increasing variety of alien mutants (procedural generation system) armed with varying6 tactical abilities and intense boss battles with massive monsters and alien land walkers. You and your team must find out what has happened to the other Phoenix Project sleeper cells as you race to bring humanity back from the brink of extinction. You play as part of the Phoenix Project, a worldwide organization set in place before the Pandoravirus, and designed to activate in times of world peril. The skies darken with alien vessels, and the Phoenix Project must rise to the challenge against their biggest foe yet in the all-new Festering Skies DLC. Those who somehow survived gather in isolated havens spread throughout the world, with several of the largest and most powerful factions of radically contrasting ideologies controlling most of the world’s resources. The fortunate majority were quickly killed off by the virus, but some were mutated by the aggressive virus, which attacks human DNA sequences and imbeds its own transformative DNA, thereby mutating humans into horrifically disfigured alien species with the ability to clone. The spread of alien Pandoravirus was an unimaginable extinction event, nearly wiping out all human life. Phoenix Point draws inspiration from a deep pool of talented developers from companies such as Ubisoft Sofia and Crytek Black Sea, and games such as XCOM 2 and X-COM Apocalypse. Phoenix Point, which has been in development for over a year, is a turn-based tactics and world-based strategy Sci-Fi game from the minds of Julian Gollop, veteran designer of the original X-COM games, and David Kaye, the founder of Gaming Insiders.
