Massive Damage sets Early Access release date for Fera: The Sundered Tribes

From Press Release:

GAMESCOM: COLOGNE, GERMANY and TORONTO – TUESDAY, AUGUST 20, 2024 – Massive Damage, the Toronto-based indie studio behind the hit strategy RPG games Star Renegades and Halcyon 6, has announced the Early Access date for its highly anticipated game, Fera: The Sundered Tribes. The aerial combat monster-hunting game will be available in Early Access for PC on Steam starting Tuesday, September 17th, 2024.

First announced at last year’s Gamescom as part of IGN’s Opening Night Live Post-Show, Fera: The Sundered Tribes has garnered a following on social channels where creators enjoy sharing clips of players soaring over the vibrant and vast landscapes in search of behemoths to battle. This 3D Action-RPG mixes elements of hunting and harvesting immense beasts, agile aerial combat, co-op gameplay, village building, and tribe leadership, resulting in a thrilling post-apocalyptic fantasy. Players glide and grapple through the sweeping vistas and towering landscapes battling colossal creatures to protect and provide for their fledgling colony and its inhabitants.

“While it’s daunting for us as an indie studio to take on a game genre inhabited by behemoth studios with massive budgets, we’re thrilled to see our TikTok videos going viral and flooded by players excited by the concept of “monster hunting with wingsuits” and eager to get their hands on Fera. ” said Ken Seto, CEO and co-founder of Massive Damage, Inc.

Fera: The Sundered Tribes Early Access will feature:

• A huge open world  with towering and expansive landscapes to explore;
• cooperative combat for up to 4 players;
• 10+ Monster species to hunt;
• 4 distinct Weapons classes with dozens of different weapons and armor to craft,
• Village building and tribe management;
• Stunning world design and art direction.

Additional monsters, classes, and features will be released throughout Early Access with the full 1.0 launch slated for sometime next year.

Recently featured as part of this year’s Summer Games Fest Play Days and designated one of eight GDC “Best in Play” winners, Fera: The Sundered Tribes will be playable on the consumer floor of this week’s Gamescom, and the developers will be onsite in the business area for press.

Fera: The Sundered Tribes Early Access for PC will be available on Steam starting September 17th for $29.99, with the full version coming in 2025. The game was previously announced for Xbox X/S with other leading consoles to follow. Players can wishlist the game on Steam.
