The Zero Killed closed beta tests showed one thing clearly: the game has huge potential to become one of the best tactical VR shooters out there and has one of the most dedicated communities willing to help the developers make that happen.
That’s why Ignibit studio has decided not only to continue working with gamers on the title, but also to give everybody a chance to try out the game and share their feedback. This means the game will move from closed beta to Steam Early Access on October 3rd this year with the new release date being set for November 30, 2018.
Before Early Access starts, you can still join the closed beta testing and add the game to your Steam Wishlist so you don’t miss the news about Early Access starting.
“The feedback we’ve received from gamers during the closed beta tests has been amazing,” says Sebastian “Sunbro” Kropiwnicki, the producer and community manager for Zero Killed. “The players told us what worked well and what needed polishing and we realized that we want to make this game with the community. So, it’s only natural to go for Steam Early Access.”
“We want to get the game in front of as many players as possible before its full release and we think that Early Access is our best way of achieving that. We don’t want to remain in EA forever though, and we’re targeting a release on the November 30, 2018,” says Maksymilian “themorfeus” Michalski, the game’s designer. “We think that’s more than enough time to cross all the t’s and dot all the i’s,” Michalski adds.
ABOUT ZERO KILLED
Zero Killed is a one-of-a-kind mix of Rainbow Six Siege’s tactical gameplay, Counter-Strike’s engaging PvP multiplayer, and SWAT 4’s rich choice of equipment and gadgets. In the game, you take control of one of the Zeros, pros who have abandoned their past and broken all contact with their former employers. These companies hired them to illegally extract the previously unknown superconductive element Petronium from the devastated territory called The Zone.
Zero Killed focuses heavily on team cooperation and communication. Both are key elements required to adapt and respond to the ever-changing situation on a battlefield. The players can choose between 10 different characters, from the heavily armored Big Foot, through the fully loaded with technology A.N.D., to Ox – an ex-navy general with a love for demolition. Each of them has their own loadout, unique gadget, and unique perk, all designed to make sure there’s something setting them apart and special in their own way. To be successful in combat will require foreseeing the opposite team’s next move, planning ahead, thinking tactically, and accurately analyzing the situation on the battlefield before deciding who from your squad should make the next move or what piece of equipment to use.
