The open-world player-versus-player-versus-environment extraction shooter, SAND: Raiders of Sophie, is scheduled to launch for PlayStation 5 and PC via Steam in March. An Xbox Series version will follow at a later date, as announced by publisher tinyBuild and developers Hologryph and TowerHaus.
Here is an overview of the game:
About SAND: Raiders of Sophie
SAND: Raiders of Sophie is an open-world player-versus-player-versus-environment extraction shooter. Players pilot massive walkers across the desolate dunes of a post-apocalyptic planet. The objective involves engaging rival players, exploring, gathering loot, and extracting valuable resources from a constantly evolving and dangerous environment.
To navigate this challenging world, players will construct and deploy ‘Tramplers.’ These colossal walking bases offer protection from environmental hazards, defend against other players, safeguard collected loot, and can eliminate obstacles, aiding players in their quest to become the most infamous pirate of the dunes.
Key Features
- Build, Customize, and Command Gigantic Mechanical Walkers – Tramplers serve as a player’s primary companion. These can be built and customized from scratch, functioning as transportation, a mobile base, storage, environmental protection, and a powerful weapon.
- Thrilling First-Person Player-Versus-Player-Versus-Environment Combat – Players can team up with friends or venture alone into the world. Engage in intense first-person combat against other players and the planet’s undead former inhabitants using diverse weaponry. Alternatively, fortify and weaponize a Trampler for large-scale battles across Sophie’s dunes.
- Explore a Fallen Civilization, Loot, and Extract – Ruined cities on Sophie contain vast riches, but hazards are ever-present. Traverse the world, search abandoned areas, monuments, and wrecks to find valuable loot, weapons, and resources. Players must fend off rival pirates before successfully extracting their acquired treasures.
