Futuremark Games Studio has revealed plans for its first content pack for the PC exclusive Shattered Horizon. The "Moonrise" pack, which will be free to all players, includes four new levels which doubles the number of levels in the game.
In Shattered Horizon, a catastrophic explosion on the Moon has filled near-Earth space with billions of tons of rocky debris. Teams of players fight in zero gravity to control the limited supplies that mean the difference between survival and death in the cold of space. The Moonrise content pack includes four new levels set around the shattered Moon, taking the fight deeper into space and showing a new side to the conflict.
Although a release date for the Moonrise pack has not been announced, players who pre-ordered Shattered Horizon will be invited to start play-testing the new levels this week. Antti Summala, Lead Designer says...
"Selected players will help us test the new Moonrise levels from a very early stage. "Level design for zero gravity combat is a big challenge and we are looking forward to having real players help us create new experiences that cannot be found in other FPS games."
*A quick warning to those interested in buying the game. Shattered Horizon requires DirectX 10, a DirectX 10 compatible video card, and Windows Vista or Windows 7. There is no support for Windows XP or DirectX 9.*
