Release Date: April 5, 2016
A spin-off of the popular space MMORPG – EVE Online, created by the same studio: C Games. EVE: Gunjack is a title developed with virtual reality sets in mind. The game sees us man a powerful cannon, defending an oil platform against the enemies trying to destroy it. When it comes to mechanics, the game is a classic rail shooter – we are unable to control the movements of our character, the player can only look around.
EVE: Gunjack for PS4 and PC is a game from C Games studio. The title is a spin-off of a popular MMORPG, EVE: Valkyrie, but abandon complicated mechanics of that game, focusing on quick firefights.
In EVE: Gunjack the players assumes the role of a soldier, whose task is to defend the mining platform by repelling various enemies. The game is a classic rail shooter – it does not offer the ability to control the movement of your character, the player can only look around. What’s interesting, the whole setting has been explained in the game world, as the cannon controls operate on a principle similar to virtual reality goggles.
As a result, the player’s role boils down to firing at large groups of opponents, and gathering various power-ups that increase the stopping power of the currently held weapon, durability of covers, and give access to new weapon types. During the gameplay, the basic guns can be changed for laser weaponry, or rocket launchers, as a result giving us much more firepower. Eliminating enemies nets us points, while linking the kills into spectacular combinations results in increasing the score multiplier.
The mainstay of the title is the singleplayer campaign, divided into missions that are unlocked as you progress in the game. EVE: Gunjack for PS4 and PC offers a substitute for multiplayer mode in form of the ability to publish your results in the internet, and compare your score to other players’ efforts.
At first, EVE: Gunjack debuted on mobile devices, employing Samsung Gear VR. However, as the time went, the title has been released for personal computers and PlayStation 4. The conversion hadn’t taken its toll on the visuals. The game uses Unreal Engine 4 technology, offering similar visuals to the sister title, EVE: Valkyrie.
