New Loot Shooter Incoming!
-
EverQuest Legend Decloaks with "Reaper Actual" — PVPVE Mayhem, Base Raids & Blockchain BuzzAlright folks, buckle up — there's a new kid on the block and it's bringing some serious old-school MMO energy with it. 🧟
️
Distinct Possibility Studios, a fresh-faced dev team led by the John Smedley (yeah, EverQuest, PlanetSide, SWG, H1Z1 — that guy), just pulled the curtain back on their debut game: Reaper Actual — a PC-based, persistent open-world loot shooter with a mix of crafting, base-building, faction wars, and… uh… raids on your stuff.
️
Here's the TL;DR:
🧠 The Setup:
Set on a big ol’ island called Marova. 5 AI factions fighting for control, and you're caught in the middle. Pick missions = gain favor with one faction, piss off the rest. 💀 It's always PVPVE — so yes, other players will absolutely try to ruin your day.
Your Base Is Your Castle:
Buy and build your base. Craft gear, store loot, and gradually unlock new powers. But watch out: other players can raid you — so better stock up on AI-controlled guards and maybe booby traps? 🛡️🔐
🦾 Classes Galore:
You’ll own unique Reaper characters like snipers, engineers, recon, etc. Each with different perks, gear access, and yes — sweet, sweet drip.
️ Built in Unreal Engine 5 so it should look sharp.
Funded with $30.5M from Bitkraft and Brevan Howard Digital.
Free-to-play on Steam & Epic, monetized via battle passes and asset sales (don’t worry — no pay-to-win).
🧙
️ But wait, there’s Web3 wizardry too:
A separate blockchain version (Etherlink / Tezos L2) with NFTs for your bases, reapers, and crafted loot. These won’t transfer to the Steam/Epic versions. Token launching later, but they’re playing coy on what it actually does.
Honestly? Could be a chaotic mess. Could be the next extraction/MMO hybrid crack we didn't know we needed.
We’ll keep an eye on it — but between base raids, AI factions, and PvPVE mayhem, this one might just eat your weekends alive.
Anyone else getting Escape from Tarkov meets Rust meets Planetside vibes?
Who’s in?
