Fight off Aliens in the Darkness in Asymmetrical Multiplayer Game ‘Level Zero’ [Trailer]

Published

on

More asymmetrical horror is coming your way courtesy of tinyBuild and developer DogHowl Games. Arriving in 2023, Level Zero will bring its own brand of six-player PvP sci-fi survival horror to PC via Steam, PlayStation and Xbox.

Pitting a team of scientists against a relentless pack of alien monsters in a deadly contest of wits and stealth, Level Zero sees four players taking on the role of a team of human scientists, scrambling to action as the power fails in their research facility. To stand any chance at survival, they must repair the base’s power systems, or be consumed by the nightmares lurking in the shadows. The science team must coordinate and communicate to search for vital tools, failing fuse panels and vital sources of light such as flares and glowsticks.

That’s right, the aliens (which are the two remaining players) are vulnerable to light. Luckily for those two players, they’ll endlessly respawn as the aliens. Armed with razor-sharp claws, blinding spit, the ability to place living land-mines, disable electrical systems with an organic EMP blast or disarm their prey with a primal scream, the aliens are incredibly versatile and powerful hunters. You’ll also be tracking the four scientists through their heartbeats as they scramble to repair the base. The only thing you have to worry about as the aliens is light, which is capable of burning you to ash in an instant.

You can head over to the official site to sign up for the Closed Beta, which will have more information released later this month.
