Focus Home Interactive and Spider Studios have announced that their new action RPG The Technomancer will be releasing on June 21st for both PS4 and Xbox One.
In a post on the PlayStation blog, Creative Director Jeanne Rousseau revealed the date along with some updated information on the game. As you may know, we control the protagonist Zachariah, who is a rookie Technomancer assigned to the Abundance corporation on Mars. You will be able to focus combat utilizing three different methods and weapon setups; Staff, blade and gun, blade and shield. Each one will have a varying amount of customization and upgrades that can be combined with your Technomancer talents
- The combat with the staff is based on mobility and damage, using sweeping blows against groups comprising several enemies.
- Fighting with Blade and gun requires agility, dodging, and controlling the pace of combat with the nail gun.
- Finally, the Blade and shield combat style focuses on defence, blocking and parrying to inflict heavy damage in response to an attack.
On the run from the secret police, you will need to upgrade all of your talents through your technomancer implants and in depth crafting system. Of course, your Technomancer talents can be combined to your combat style: electrify your weapon to boost the damage, or create an electricity shield to boost your defense… it’s also important to consider changing stances in the middle of a fight to gain an advantage!
