The Front Arrives to Early Access on October 11

jasonnieva September 27, 2023

The Front by developer Samar is all set to launch in Early Access this coming October 11. The game is set in a post-apocalyptic world that's filled with not only various mutants but also rival factions. Players need to fight for their lives in this time-traveling open-world survival game if humanity is to survive.

Survival is key and the good news is that players are able to build bases which are unrestricted by terrain and their creative imagination. They can put up tower defense-like traps to prevent enemy soldiers and monsters from destroying the shelter. To be self-sufficient, players not only can plant their very own set of crops but can even cook them through dozens of recipes. The fight may be difficult, but this post-apocalyptic world also has friendly faces which help in the fight as well as in improving the capabilities of the bases.

Here are some of the features available in Early Access:

  • Build Your Own Shelter: Get to use hundreds of building components to build the base you want that’s unrestricted by terrain.
  • Unique Tower Defense Gameplay: Control enemy’s routes and arrange traps that integrate sensing, triggering, and killing to fend off the invasion of monsters.
  • Build Your own modern vehicles: Build and then drive more than 20 types of vehicles that include the likes of pickup trucks, logging trucks, mining trucks, self-propelled anti-aircraft guns, and helicopter gunships.
  • Logical Circuit: Make use of simple electrical parts and create complex mechanisms to accomplish various objectives. For example, it could be an active defense system which detects and then automatically attacks any incoming threats near the base.
  • Recruiting NPCs: Use Jammers and capture world NPCs. Aside from helping players in battle, there are also different types of crafting tables which can show the talent of these NPCs.
  • Planting and Cooking: Craft water-powered equipment to develop agriculture through automatic spraying and planting. Provide dozens of recipes to cook delicious food.
  • Explore the post-apocalyptic world: Cross deserts, rainforests, snow covered terrain, and swamps. Discover unknown areas such as underground institutes and military exclusion zones, collect drawings, and grab airdrops.
