Kruger & Flint Productions’ Bloody Arcade FPS ‘Bloodhound’ Arrives July 18 on Steam [Trailer]

Fallen Leaf and Black Drakkar Games have finally announced that their sci-fi thriller Fort Solis will be releasing on the PS5 and PC via Steam on August 22nd. Accompanying the announcement is a new “Welcome to Fort Solis” gameplay trailer, offering players a tour of the titular mining station.

With the station, care was taken to create a facility that could believably host a crew, yet remain coolly indifferent enough to “drive one mad”. Fort Solis station is the product of corporate industry, a massive and inhospitable base set amidst the blood red wasteland of the Martian desert.

“With Fort Solis we wanted the setting to be a character,” said James Tinsdale, Game Director at Fallen Leaf. “Sci-fi horror is host to many of cinema’s greatest, most chilling settings. Like Alien’s Nostromo or Solaris’ titular vessel, we wanted Fort Solis to create its own hostile tone, a derelict mining station barraged by a sand storm. The environments in Fort Solis are integral to the story we’re telling, so bringing it to life was among our top priorities.”

Fort Solis has you assume the role of engineer Jack Leary, as he spends the longest night of his life on an isolated mining base on Mars. Explore Fort Solis station at your own pace, gathering clues from its bunkers, labs, crew quarters, and harsh, stormy surface to understand what enigmatic fate befell its inhabitants. As the night grows longer events escalate, spiral out of control, and the mystery as to what’s really going on deepens.

In addition to a digital release, the PS5 version of Fort Solis will also see a physical release, courtesy of Merge Games.
