Next week, the Extraction shooter will enter Early Access on Steam. This phase will last between three and six months and will give the developers the opportunity to take care of bugs, improve gameplay and deliver new content.
What awaits you? As the trailer already shows, Shell Runner throws you into a colorful cyberpunk setting with fast-paced top-down battles. According to the official description on the Steam page, it is a tactical shooter that mixes looter shooter with extraction gameplay.
You can fight solo or with other players in co-op or PvE mode. You take on the role of a so-called shell runner, who basically works for anyone who offers enough money.
In battle you control your individual shells
In battle, you control the so-called shells, a type of remote-controlled robot. You can customize these and adapt them to your ideas and playing style. There are 20 different shell models available in the game.
In order to secure your loot, you have to make it to a certain extraction point. If your shell is destroyed before then, you will also lose the loot and your equipment. You are also promised that no two runs will be the same. Procedurally generated maps and boss fights with random sequences should ensure this.
By the way, you can find a farming game from the same publisher on Steam that can also be pretty dark: Steam: Don’t be fooled by the look of this farming game, because absolutely anything can kill you
