The lines between First-person and Third-person shooters are about to blur with Subgames’ new game Mercenary Assault & Recon Squad or M.A.R.S for short. Later this month, Subgames will be holding a beta for M.A.R.S to show the world what they have been missing. In an industry dominated by AAA games, this Unreal Engine game, M.A.R.S looks to destroy the industry standard. Go wild in Headhunter mode or battle it out in Huge Mecha vs Mecha combat. Before diving into the M.A.R.S beta, here is more information about the game.
Below is a snipped of M.A.R.S story as described by the developers.
It’s the year 20XX; military conflict between the League of Nations and UNITA run rampant across the globe, prompting small scale wars to break out in various regions. In order to combat UNITA’s biochemical modification of humans, the League of Nations secretly developed the NRC: Insectoid Robots with frightening intelligence and a brimming consciousness, which sooner than not went rogue and became its own faction in this now-three-way war. The human world is now at stake, and a battle for survival and supremacy is being waged.
Gameplay consists of two styles of combat: PvE and PvP; both styles are integral in both the plotline and the gameplay experience of M.A.R.S. You must be prepared to face off against not only enemy agents but robots, mutants, dinosaurs, even ancient gods! A Rogue AI outbreak has wreaked havoc on society with no time to react. It’s now your job to go back in time and stop everything before it can happen again.
Key Game Play Features:
- From classic PvP modes such as Team Deathmatch, Domination, and Search & Destroy, to some more exotic modes such as Headhunter; where the player’s head will grow with every successive kill! And fear not, those who enjoy a little PvE gameplay; M.A.R.S. has dozens of those too! Fighting off aliens, dinosaurs, and robots in Wave based Survival modes, to pushing through UNITA’s compound in challenging mini-campaigns with up to 4 players!
- Every weapon in M.A.R.S. comes with both a Level and a Grade; each higher tier adding bonuses in terms of stats and abilities to your items! Complete missions to be awarded upgrade materials, and use those materials to upgrade your weapons; simple! Many weapons can even simply be bought from the armory with currency gained from completing missions and challenges; you’ll have your own fully stocked arsenal in no time!
- From 4 basic difficulty levels, coupled on top of advanced challenge modes and unique settings; no thrill-seeker or daredevil will ever be wanting more after trying out Nightmare Challenges! Or if you’re feeling extra daring, give the Quantum Trials a go. Gather 3 of your friends and push through the floors! You’ll be lucky to beat floor 1.
- Saving the world is no easy feat, but fret not! Your epic achievements and glorious accolades will be chronicled throughout fully voice-acted cutscenes and cinematics.
