Redout Space Assault Coming To A System Near You

An assault on the senses, the Redout Space Assault senses. Nah, that doesn't work, but this arcade shooter does.

Let’s catch up with the news by going to something from today rather than a couple of days ago: Redout Space Assault, heading to PC and consoles in January 2021.

Redout is an award-winning futuristic racer from 34BigThings and Saber Interactive, and this follow up, to coin a phrase, is set in the same universe, only it’s an arcade space shooter as opposed to a racer.

Fact fans will be interested in reading that Redout Space Assault is a prequel. A sci-fi shooter that ‘takes the best features of the series – fast, epic pacing, high-skill gameplay and eye-popping aesthetics – and combines them with new weapons and spaceflight mechanics’.

Other than the wide selection of missions, players will be able to customise their ship too, which is always a winner in my opinion. Additionally, you’ll find the following features too:

  • Career Mode: Learn every skill you need to survive and triumph in 
  • the Redout universe.
  • Thriving Worlds: Experience exotic locations and epic battles beyond every frontier.
  • Deep Gameplay: Manifest your tactical superiority by putting your quick thinking, dexterity and adaptability to the test.
  • Bigger, Badder Weapons: A vast array of weapons is at your disposal, from Plasma Cannons and Shock Rays to Railguns, Air-to-Air Missiles, and Load-up Gatlings.
  • Customize Your Ride: Upgrade your spaceship to blast enemies by the dozens or single-handedly take on a Destroyer Warship! Drop and swap Cards to improve specific aspects of your ship and better fit your style.
  • Music for Your Ears: An entirely dynamic soundtrack that drops ever-sicker beats as the action heats up!

What did the CEO have to say about all of this? I’ll tell you what they said:

We are thrilled to deliver another exciting chapter of the Redout saga. Redout: Space Assault is an adrenaline-filled space shooter with a captivating story that will uncover the mysteries behind the reckless AG races of the original Redout.
