“2020 has been a great year for us with more than 200k copies of SYNTHETIK sold on PC this year alone, and we’re looking forward to an even more exciting 2021 – we will reveal more about that soon! To celebrate we’ve wrapped up a great Christmas package for the end of the year as we release the Ultimate Edition expansion for SYNTHETIK: Legion Rising for PC and it arrives on consoles as well with the release of SYNTHETIK: Ultimate!
We think the Nintendo Switch™, Xbox One and PlayStation 4 are all excellent platforms for action games, and our mission is to offer these players a fast paced shooter experience with the purity of the action seen in old-school titles, combined with the replayability of a modern roguelike.”
