Cyberpunk RPG ‘The Technomancer’ Release News (VIDEO)

French developer, Spiders Games and publisher, Focus Home Interactive have issued a statement saying they will be scheduling cyberpunk role playing game, “The Technomancer” for public release in 2016.

Borrowing from the style of B-movies, “The Technomancer” is a sequel to Spiders Games’ “Mars: War Logs.”

The RPG will be set on a cyberpunk version of the planet Mars during the War of Water, and follows the story of a cybernetic warrior with a past cloaked in mystery, who is on the run from Martian society’s Secret Police.

Players will don a black robe and space hat in the role of an aspiring Technomancer whose future is in danger from the secrets in his past. As the game progresses, players will uncover bits and pieces of the warrior’s past, while helping him interact with various elements in the environment using “action-oriented combat gameplay.”

The role playing game will enable players to craft weapons and use combat skills as their warrior progresses through a number of different environments on the Red Planet.

Players should expect some dynamic interaction with other characters in the game, several companions joining in adventures, and five different endings, depending on the dialog elements chosen.

Players can also opt for three different fighting styles to adopt for the mysterious cybernetic warrior as he makes his way across the harsh environment of Mars, undertake quests that lead him through various tribal communities on the planet, dilapidated dystopian shantytowns, and even lost cities under the ice.

The game challenges players to survive Mars’ wildlife and cruel alien enforcers long enough to uncover the truth of “The Technomancer.”

“The Technomancer” will be released for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC in 2016.
