NEXON Games masters its timing. After announcing Project Magnum last year, the developers will take advantage of Gamescom to tell us more about their next baby, a year later. To wait before the end of August, a new teaser video is offered to us with new details.
The First Descendant, a new free coop TPS under Unreal Engine 5
Project Magnum therefore becomes The First Descendant and presents itself as a “third-person cooperative action RPG shooter”, all under the Unreal Engine 5 and free-to-play. The game is playable for up to four people and relies as much on frenetic action with giant boss fights as on loot and weapons to customize your character.
You play as a Descendant with mysterious inherited powers and fight to protect humanity from alien invaders. Gameplay includes strategic boss battles with 4-player tactics, grappling hooks, unique character abilities, engaging gunplay, and tons of loot. After completing missions and defeating huge bosses, players can unlock powerful new characters, gear, and upgrades.
The release date of The First Descendant is not yet known but we know that the game will land on Steam, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S. A beta will be announced soon.
