Void Bastards (PS4)

Can you lead the misfit prisoners of the Void Ark through the derelict spaceships and myriad dangers of the Sargasso Nebula? Will you make the right choices about what to do, where to go and when to fight? Master combat, manage ship controls, scavenge supplies, craft improvised tools and much more!

Void Bastards challenges you to lead a rag-tag group of prisoners home through the myriad dangers of the Sargasso Nebula. How to do so is entirely up to you as you both craft a long term strategy for escape and play out the missions into derelict spacecraft you come across.

Void Bastards takes the simulation first-person shooter to new places by letting you both set your own goals and then carry them out in real time. Succeed by mastering moment to moment shooting, stealth and tactical skills as well as understanding when and how to use them in order to achieve your goals. There's no omniscient voice in your ear telling you what to do. Void Bastard players solve their own problems.

Add this uniquely new take on the FPS to a stunningly rendered world that draws its look from graphic novels, a shedload of novel weaponry and tools, a host of bizarre enemies both mechanical and biological (and don’t forget to throw in a deranged computer) and you have the makings of a classic.
