Blowfish Studios, a subsidiary of interactive entertainment company Animoca Brands, today launched its mecha space opera Phantom Galaxies in free-to-play Early Access for PC. Phantom Galaxies is available now on Steam, the Epic Games Store, and the official website.
Phantom Galaxies is an expansive online multiplayer sci-fi action-RPG set in a vast and immersive universe, featuring thrilling mecha combat, sprawling, picturesque galaxies and handcrafted locations, and diverse gameplay and storylines.
An interstellar war has brought the intergalactic empires of the Commonwealth and the Union together to form the Ranger Squadron — a unit of elite mecha pilots devoted to protecting human colonies on the frontiers of known space. Players will become elite pilots of transforming mechanized Starfighters to defend against the incursions of ruthless pirate and alien factions, from the scavenging Junkers and paramilitary Brooksea to the reviled Xanorra and vicious Sha’har zealots.
In Phantom Galaxies, players can create unique characters, customize their transforming Starfighters to suit their playstyle, engage in high-intensity combat in space or on the ground, and secure strategic locations to defend humanity’s territory. Players can fight alone or team up with other pilots online. Player freedom is a core aspect of the game, with a variety of mecha types to choose from — specializing in close, medium, or long-ranged combat and fully customizable to focus on offense, defense, or both.
“I can’t begin to describe our excitement today as we launch Phantom Galaxies — our biggest and most ambitious game yet. Our world-class developers have created a thrilling AAA action-RPG that is a labor of love for all of us at Blowfish Studios and Animoca Brands, and we’re very proud to introduce it to gamers worldwide.” -Ben Lee, Co-Founder of Blowfish Studios
