Technical aspects

Redout: Space Assault, available on PC, is a space shooter. The project was developed by an independent Italian studio 34BigThings.

Plot

The previous work of the team was a futuristic racing game called Redout. Despite the same name, Redout: Space Assault is definitely a different production, but, in a sense, it retains the racing theme. The action takes us to 2395 when the mass evacuation of the Earth's population begins. A large part of the population has faith in a large colonization fleet that wants to live in the old way on foreign planets. However, there are also rebels who see this situation as an opportunity to gain freedom and create a new society among the stars. This creates fierce competition for who will be the first to reach the most promising worlds.

Mechanics

Redout: Space Assault, released on PC, is a space arcade shooter. The authors focused on dynamic action and a large variety of challenges. During the game, we fight among the stars, escort convoys, run away from drones or even fly inside giant mother ships to destroy them from the inside.

Players can also dock fighters in larger corvettes, allowing them to take control of them. The game also has a system for modifying and improving units. This includes not only our fighter but also other units in the fleet.

Game modes

Redout: Space Assault offers a single player mode where we start as a regular recruiter and slowly gain the recognition that allows us to advance in the structure of the fleet. However, the authors devoted most attention to multiplayer mode. It offers a wide range of specialization of ships and a wide range of weapons, equipment and cosmetic elements, which can be unlocked while playing.

Technical aspects

The game boasts an attractive three-dimensional graphic design, the biggest advantages of which are interesting ship designs and a well-presented feeling of speed during the flight on a ship.
