Retro FPS Extinction Rifts To Launch Later This Year

Due for a release in the second half of 2024 (surely from next month?), Extinction Rifts is a retro FPS, or boomer shooter, coming to PC and consoles, courtesy of QUByte Interactive.

Set in a dystopian future, ‘mysterious monoliths have appeared on planet earth and humanity, fearful of the origin and power of these artifacts, has begun to debate the possibility of destroying them’. Unfortunately, a terrorist group has taken control of them, instigating the ‘selective extinction of the human race’.

Key features include:

  • Fast-paced combat and arcade gameplay,
  • FPS mechanics combined with time and energy management,
  • Secrets scattered throughout the stages,
  • Special abilities and different weapons,
  • The “Extinction Punch”: a powerful punch capable of destroying an entire level and completing the stage immediately,
  • High replayability with player rankings, weapon unlocks and new abilities,
  • Multiple endings,
  • Special filter for pixelated visuals,
  • Play your way: it’s possible to finish the game even without using your super powerful punch.

Extinction Rifts will be available later this year for PC (Steam), PlayStation, Xbox and the Nintendo Switch.
