- Co-op alien blaster Earthfall is free for the weekend and cheap to keep - 15 November 2018
Let’s not beat around the bush – Earthfall is Left 4 Dead but with aliens instead of zombies. It’s also free to try for the weekend , and very cheap if you want to keep it. Launched in July, Holospark’s co-op FPS never quite caught on, despite looking like a perfectly decent way to spend a few hours exploding stuff with friends. In the end it never really had enough players to sustain itself the way Left 4 Dead did, which brings us to this free weekend and steep sale, shortly after the release of a bunch of free content. Below, a trailer for that first big update for the game: Invasion. (more…)

With the upcoming Invasion Update coming out later month we will be adding Player Progression, Player Perks & Skills, Invasion Mode which is our twist on horde mode, new player skins, and outfits. But we didn't stop there, we wanted to take Earthfall to the next level, specifically in the weapon audio. So we asked around and search and found what we think is the best sound design team in the world, Formosa Group. It is hard to argue based on their work which spans across games, movies and television including Uncharted, God of War, Mass Effect, John Wick 1, 2 and the upcoming 3, Deadpool 2, Blade Runner 2049 and Game of Thrones. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKbSSxJ_Bn0 The team at Formosa Interactive took on the task to ta…

We had TONS of ideas during development and even more suggestions from fans on what type of weapons we should add to Earthfall next. With the upcoming Inferno Update, we are excited to be adding a Compact SMG to your arsenal. The xP9D is a Compact SMG that punishes the alien invaders with a high firing rate and a large clip. Make sure you get close to your target and shoot in bursts to maximize your damage. Need a little more accuracy? Use the red dot scope to help you nail that thresher or get a headshot on an incoming drone swarm. Even with the large clip, the ammo goes quickly to make every shot count! With the addition of the xP9D, it is a perfect time to go back t…
