The PvPvE title, The Cycle, is now coming to the Epic Games Store exclusively with an alpha session for The Cycle coming this week
Another game has made its way over to the exclusive pile for the Epic Games Store, as The Cycle joins the ranks to further fire we have here. This would be the upcoming match-based shooter that YAGER dropped on us not too long ago. They also brought it along to the recent GDC to give gamers a taste of what the game will bring with it. That is at least if you have not been following along with The Cycle since it was first shown to the world or just forgot about it since. There are so many titles out there that it does happen every now and then.
In any instance, we have a new gameplay trailer for The Cycle to go along with the announcement on where we will be able to buy the game. It looks like a great blending between a few other titles out there with some minor gameplay twists to it. At least that is how I am seeing it all here. Maybe you will take in a bit more knowing that it is your squad and you versus everything else out there and not a biking game. I know that is what I first thought of when I heard of The Cycle. I may also not be your average person though…
The Cycle — GDC Gameplay
The Cycle is a match-based first-person shooter with an emphasis on PvPvE action, completing jobs, gearing up with new weapons and powers, out-scoring other players and making it off the planet alive. On the exotic alien frontier of Fortuna III, you’ll compete against and — if you choose — team up with other Prospectors to harvest resources, defeat hostile lifeforms and make your fortune before the world, your rivals or even your so-called allies kill you.
It’s up to you how to stake your claim: go it alone, form squads with friends or make uneasy temporary alliances with strangers. The Cycle delivers a competitive multiplayer experience where everyone can survive, but how you choose to manage your time on Fortuna III can have a big impact. Completing your own objectives will give you more points on the leaderboard, but knocking off your opponents is a surefire way to make sure they don’t get any higher either.
The Cycle is expected to enter closed beta this spring.
What thoughts do you have about The Cycle now that we have a bit more and can see an alpha test coming? Did you think it was a biking game or did you think they were going in on the gameplay cycle we will need to grind through? Does it matter to you if it is on the Epic Games Store or are you going to rage for absolutely no reason on that? Let us all know down in the comments and then feel free to discuss. When there is more to share for The Cycle, we will share it all here. Just be sure to keep checking in for that and more on the site.
