A while ago, Prime Matter and developer Mad Head Games revealed Scars Above, an atmospheric sci-fi shooter with roguelike elements somewhat in the vein of Returnal and other similar games. Quite recently, we also saw a new trailer for the game in which we saw some of the visual polish it has gotten since its announcement. Now, we got a new trailer that tells you all you need to know about the game.
You can watch the new Scars Above gameplay trailer below:
Scars Above’s fundamentals and core elements are explained in this trailer. In it, we get to see some of the key elements within Scars Above and the mysterious world that the game’s protagonist (Kate Ward) traverses. The trailer allows players to see various core elements of the game, such as exploration, combat, and research.
If you need to know more about Scars Above, you can look at the game’s official description below:
A colossal and enigmatic alien structure appears in Earth’s orbit and stuns the entire world; humanity names it ‘The Metahedron’. The Sentient Contact Assessment and Response team (SCAR) – consisting of scientists and engineers – is sent to investigate.
Things don’t go as planned and the Metahedron hauls the team across space onto a mysterious planet. Playing the role of Dr Kate Ward – a SCAR member – who wakes up dazed, alone in a strange, hostile environment. Determined to survive, you set out to find your crew and unravel the mystery behind what’s happened to you.
Scars Above aims to let players immerse themselves in a sci-fi adventure in which scientific skills are paramount to extrapolate information. The game has also boasted about challenging enemies and bosses that will require a combination of elemental attacks, gadgets, and items alongside some awareness of the environment and enemy weaknesses. Scars Above will launch on PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5 on February 28, 2023.
