Spanish MercurySteam (who previously worked on Castlevania: Lords of the Shadow) is already at their third developer diary video in their series.

The six-minute video also asks a question in the title: does the world need another shooter? Quoting the press release: „The answer, of course, is yes, but it needs to be an innovative take on the genre. In this multi-part developer diary, Game Designer Joan Amat and Gameplay Programmer Hernan Ojuel guide us through the basics of Raiders of the Broken Planet. They take a deep dive into the game’s unique features: its characters, abilities, perk systems and weapons before they jump into 4-player co-op match that gets invaded by an antagonist in the following episode. Also, the developer diary delves deeper into the role of the antagonist, not only in the story but how the counter-operative adds to the overall adventure aspect of the game.

Currently, in closed beta, Raiders of the Broken Planet is a 4 divided by 1 shooter brawler set in a pulp sci-fi universe. The game melds comic book visuals with an intense narrative that involves various factions fighting for the mythical power source, Aleph.”
