With the majority of humanity decimated by the Shiva plague and an ensuing nuclear holocaust, civilization hovers on the brink of extinction. The world as we knew it will never be the same.
The year is 2156. As one of the last remaining habitable areas, the Grand Canyon Province is home to six factions fighting for control of the Fallen Earth. Some fight for the remnants of the world they used to know, while other garner hope of a peaceful civilization to come.
In order to survive, you’ve become a scavenger. With more than 1,000 square kilometers of landscape, you hunt scrap metal and recycled parts to craft the thousands of items you’ll need to sruvive. You trade with others for food, weapons, technology and protection. and the missions you choose make you who you are—will you ally with a faction or rally against it?
Embroiled in a fight for your life, you’re battling the environment and others who need the same resources as you. Combining first-person shooter style action with the traditional role-playing game design, the challenge will require all that you have and all you are.
Those left in the wake of destruction have to make a choice.
Where will you stand in the fight for Fallen Earth?
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Fallen Earth™?
Fallen Earth is a massively multiplayer online roleplaying game set on a post-apocalyptic Earth in the year 2154. Within the Grand Canyon Province, an isolated pocket of settlements around one of the world's most amazing landmarks, you'll face threats to mankind's continued survival, from irradiated zones to mutated beasts to raiders. Six factions struggle for dominance in the province. Over time, you'll have the chance to pick a side in the effort to hold sway over what remains of the post-Fall world.
Who is behind Fallen Earth?
The artists, programmers, and writers at Icarus Studios have built the world and crafted the stories that will unfold in Fallen Earth.
When will Fallen Earth be released?
It'll be done when it's done. Seriously. We've been developing the game for several years, and we're not interested in making the mistake of releasing a game that's not ready for players. However, you can rest assured that we're just as eager to see the game go live as you!
How much will Fallen Earth cost?
We haven't announced retail pricing for the game yet, but it will be competitive with other major MMOs.
What races will I get to play?
Just humans. This is the homeworld of humanity and you're trying to rebuild on the ruins.
What classes will be available?
We're not making our players choose a class. Instead, players will customize their characters with stats, skills, abilities, and mutations.
Will other players be able to gank me in the early stages of learning the game?
No. All players start in the Plateau, which doesn't allow for Player vs. Player combat. PvP is introduced later in the game.
Do I need a broadband connection to play?
No, but it is recommended for an optimum gameplay experience.
Can I play with my friends all over the world?
That's the plan! The game itself should be accessible from all over the world. If you've got friends on the Internet, plan to see them on Fallen Earth.
How many people can play simultaneously?
We won't have a maximum limit. The more, the merrier!
Will there be loading screens between zones?
Zones? What zones? Fallen Earth is a zoneless world, allowing players to move seamlessly from one area to another without loading screens.
The gun mechanics look like they handle smoothly.. This is gonna be like a Fallout 3 MMORPG, crazy.
