About SYNTHETIK: Legion Rising
SYNTHETIK: Legion Rising is a tactical top-down action roguelite developed and published by Flow Fire Games and released on 16 March 2018. Fight against relentless opponents and unforgiving bosses in ever-changing environments, and master uniquely deep weapon mechanics with an unprecedented amount of customisation. Death is permanent, so every run counts.
Gunplay is the heart of the game: eject magazines and time active reloads, watch out for weapons that jam and overheat, tame movement-based recoil and switch between ammo types. Direct, satisfying weapon handling rewards precision, and headshots arrive in a top-down shooter. More than 80 weapons wait to be discovered, upgraded and fitted with attachments.
There are many ways to play, from stealthy tactics to turret builds, heavy weapon madness or a plasma blade. More than 140 items such as laser mines, mind control, psy fields and orbital lasers can be stacked up to nine at a time. Level up eight class specialisations, from Riot Guard to Demolisher, and combine 11 difficulty modifications for a tailored challenge.
It is a sci-fi action roguelite shooter with a top-down view. It runs on Windows 7 or newer and supports English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Polish, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian, Korean and Simplified Chinese text. The minimum configuration requires an Intel Celeron G1820 or AMD FX 8320, 4 GB of RAM, a GeForce GTX 460 or Radeon HD 5770 and 600 MB of free disk space. The game is rated USK 12 and is a strong pick for players who love tactical gunplay, deep loadouts and replayable runs.
