Sci-Fi Shooter OUTBLAST Set To Release June 4th
Technology and VR specialist developer and publisher Rhino Rock Studios is excited to announce the imminent release of OUTBLAST, launching June 4th. Strap in for a mesmeric, free-flowing shooter where you are on a full ‘blast’ mission of possible impending doom!
Don your VR headset or settle into your comfy chair for this blaster masterpiece, featuring dual presentation modes with VR and flat-screen support.
Welcome to the OUTBLAST Zone
You are the pilot of interceptor C11-28. Your mission is to defend the planet’s core against infected constructs. Prepare for a fast-paced, out-and-out sci-fi shooter where anticipation, skill, and a smidgen of luck need to be on your side.
A rogue viral intelligence known as Typhon is spreading through the system, corrupting entire districts and destabilising the planetary core. Standard defences have failed, and you are the system’s only hope.
The mission ahead is perilous but you must boost, blast, and survive nonstop combat in this frantic arcade shooter. Defend Perseon-6 from relentless infected waves before the core collapses. Battle legendary enemies across five deadly districts, upgrade your ship with collected data fragments to withstand increasingly powerful threats, and compete against players worldwide for the top spot on the leaderboard!
