Get a deep dive into the story of The Alters, the dangers that await you on a desolate planet, and take a look at gameplay in this latest trailer for the upcoming sci-fi game. Get ready to help Jan Dolski escape this dangerous planet--with the help of alternate versions of himself--when The Alters launches in 2024 on PC (via Steam, Epic Games Store, and GOG), PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S, as well as Game Pass for PC and Xbox.
The Alters throws you into a heart-pounding battle for survival that Jan can't conquer alone. After crash landing on a desolate planet with a scorching star, Jan must avoid the murderous conditions by taking refuge in a cutting-edge mobile base. The only issue? It’s meant to be operated by a skilled team and he’s just Jan.
Thankfully, fate takes a turn with the discovery of Rapidium, a mysterious substance exclusive to this perilous world. Interacting with the Quantum Computer on board the mobile base allows Jan to manipulate pivotal decisions from his past—creating alternate versions of himself known as Alters—that have the potential to change everything.
The Alters are indispensable allies and they possess diverse skill sets crucial for repairing the base, sustaining life, crafting essential tools, and mining precious resources. However, they’re also more than mere taskbots, with each operating as a sentient being, complete with unique emotions, goals, and even a dash of existential doubt thrown in. While this does potentially open the door for chaos, their collective goal remains the same: survive, escape, and do it all by themselves.
