Spec Ops: The Linedeveloper Yager has announced a brand new, multiplayer-focused shooter calledThe Cycle. Exhibiting a sci-fi theme and taking place on the distant planet Fortuna III, the game will task 20 players with battling each other and the planet’s native lifeforms to find fortune and fame. In a move to get away from simply murdering each other, the game focuses on having players complete contracts within the span of an approximately 20-minute match so they can earn money to unlock better gear for future encounters.
According to theofficial website, the alpha build of the game will be launching within the next few weeks and will be available on Steam. Yager is wrapping up internal testing before setting the game loose. Currently, it will be a PC exclusive, but Yager isn’t ruling out bringing the shooter to consoles.
