SCE San Diego has announced Kill Strain, a new top-down, “highly competitive” multiplayer game that will launch for PlayStation 4 within the next year.
It is described as a five-versus-two-versus-five game where enemies can quickly become your teammates. Find a list of features below.
- Play across a frozen tundra where an experimental energy source has been unearthed and an outbreak threatens to spread around the globe. What is waiting in the Strain?
- Take on the role of a human mercenary tasked with containing the outbreak, a mutated abomination hell-bent on infecting those who have come to silence them, or perhaps… both?
- When the battle changes and your teammates are no longer on your side, will you persevere?
- When plans turn to frantic last-ditch efforts and you find yourself increasingly isolated, will you adapt?
Sign-ups for the beta are available at the game’s official website. If you’re at PlayStation Experience in Las Vegas, you’ll be able to test the game in it’s pre-alpha state on the show floor.
