Phantom Line, Open-World Paranormal PvE Shooter, Details Demo Launch Today

Wake up, soldiers!

Your mission is to search and contain anomalies – supernatural activity hidden from the public eye, in an open-world map full of dynamic events. We face a nuclear war, but you’ve always been able to improvise. Study your surroundings, plan, prepare, and adjust tactics. The Organization is counting on you. Wield the H.U.S.K.s for the cause.

Now, go die again.

PHANTOM LINE is a co-op (1-4) shooter set in the post-nuclear European continent. Your mission is to search and contain anomalies – paranormal activity hidden from the public eye, in an open-world map full of dynamic events.

THE OPERATOR - You are in an elite spec-op unit working for Mortfield Industries, a megacorp that gave you a second chance. You‘ve been selected for the Operator Simulation Program called H.U.S.K., where you can transfer your consciousness between artificial bodies. Use H.U.S.K.s in your tactics: scout, distract, decoy, or utilize many other strategies and commands to gain an advantage over anything in the way.

ANOMALIES - Hidden from the public, our world is full of paranormal creatures and phenomena dubbed “anomalies.” Leaking into our world through rifts in the space-time fabric, these threats to humanity grow each day. Containing these extremely dangerous events requires the most elite Operators.

BASE UPGRADES - A nuclear Icebreaker ship will be your base of operations. Customize your H.U.S.K. and cabin, showcase your weapons and armor to your friends, modify your gear and body. Get briefed on a main deck for your next anomaly hunt.

WORLD - Nuclear war has just broken out, and you are sent to the disputed Iron Corridor – an Eastern European region torn by international tensions. Operators need to be self-sufficient should they become cut off. Improvise as necessary: use any resources available, gear up, and adjust your tactics to the situation on the ground. Hunt and cook wild animals to maintain optimal health.

Humanity is at war – to fight the anomalous horror, you must turn into one yourself. Wield the H.U.S.K.s for the cause. Augment your body with exotic elements you get after containing anomalies. Become the ultimate anomaly hunter. Go die again.

In-Lore Report

GLOBAL BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF ████████████████████ - EXECUTIVE ORDER - TOP PRIORITY
TO BE RELEASED IMMEDIATELY UPON SIGNATURE

Date:
██████████

TO ALL ORGANIZATION’S MEMBERS

We, the Board, have noted the highest civil unrest in decades among ██████, ████████, ████████████████████ and ██████████ groups. Our subordinates in various local authorities across the globe are failing to stabilize the situation. We, the Board, have noted concerns about our ability to deal with the rising tension using our conventional resources.

We, the Board, have decided to update ████████████████ to the 2nd level. This is not the first time we have faced this challenge. Thus, we shall follow the necessary protocols and procedures until we eliminate the threat and restore order.

Thus to prevent further damage to ORGANIZATION, we, the Board, are ordering to:

Wake up all OPERATORS, including the initial series marked as discarded, from the deep death in the Crypts, and restore them to full capability, including cognitive and memory adjustments.
Restore the right to possess and dispose of any unidentified bodies originating from bio-printers, regardless of their mental and physical state.
Terminate the right to remember any deeds, actions, words, sounds, or images originating from the OPERATORS that could be against the best interest of the ORGANIZATION.

Therefore, for the greater good of the HUMANITY:

All bio-printers are to begin immediate full-capacity H.U.S.K. production.
The orbital communication stations are to dedicate all necessary broadband to uphold the OPERATORS' transfers between the Crypts and H.U.S.K.s.
Regardless of their branch and customary purpose, all departments must dedicate all necessary resources to deliver this global initiative.

Moving forward,

Our recently acquired subsidiary, ANTISTATIC STUDIOS, will roll out the test version of the OPERATOR SIMULATION PROGRAM under the codename PHANTOM LINE.
It will continue its operations as an independent video game developer under our direct supervision, and deploy an open test for any willing CIVILIAN participants registered to DISCORD.
The PHANTOM LINE test aims to stress-test the entire internal infrastructure and system designs before uploading the OPERATORS to the orbital cloud.

Key communication channel to recruit willing CIVILIAN participants:
