Publisher Level Infinite and developer NExT Studios announced a release date for SYNCED.
Their new match-based looter shooter is launching for Windows PC (via Steam) on September 8th – slightly missing its summer release. Console ports will come sometime later.
Here’s a rundown on the game, plus a new trailer:
SYNCED is a match-based Rogue-Looter Shooter developed by NExT Studios. In a techno-apocalyptic future, you are a Runner who joins the war with deadly techno-creatures called Nanos inside the sealed exclusion zone known as the Meridian.
Choose your Runner and team up in PvE and PvP matches, defeat the Nanos, and even tame and weaponize them against your enemies.
Tame and synchronize these Nanos into different Companion classes you can deploy in combat. Strengthen your squad, upgrade your weapons, earn your place among the best of the Runners, and win the fight that humanity started.
THE WORLD
SYNCED is set in the near future of our world, where nanotechnology has become the backbone of civilization. In the wake of a cataclysm known as the Collapse, the nanomachines have gone rogue, forming themselves into feral, predatory creatures that roam the wastelands, consuming humans to propagate themselves.
In this apocalypse, fortune-seekers known as Runners have converged on Snake River Valley WA, ground zero for the Collapse, in search of a valuable nano-energy substance known as nerva, the new oil of a new world.
Some have come for the sake of greed, others for the sake of glory. But all runners will stop at nothing to achieve their goals.
