The Alters’ gameplay trailer shows the first look at Jan's quest to escape a perilous planet while searching for the answer to the most oft-asked question in human history: what if?
Here's the official blurb:
Inspired by the critically acclaimed title This War of Mine, The Alters thrusts players into a heart-pounding battle for survival that Jan can't conquer alone. After crash landing on a desolate planet with a scorching star, Jan must avoid the murderous conditions by taking refuge in a cutting-edge mobile base. The only issue? It’s meant to be operated by a skilled team and he’s just Jan.
Thankfully, fate takes a turn with the discovery of Rapidium, a mysterious substance exclusive to this perilous world. Interacting with the Quantum Computer on board the mobile base allows Jan to manipulate pivotal decisions from his past—creating alternate versions of himself known as Alters—that have the potential to change everything.
The Alters is due out on PlayStation 5, PC (Steam, GOG, Epic), and Xbox Series X and S at some point in 2024.
