Hollowpoint’s Dystopian Future Explored in New Story Trailer

A story trailer for Ruffian Games’ Hollowpoint, an upcoming four player co-op shooter published by Paradox Interactive, has been released. Along with gameplay from the 2D/3D action hybrid, the trailer actually sets up the story for the events that drive Hollowpoint.

“Hollowpoint” is the term used for mercenaries hired by Mega Corporations, giant corporations formed following the collapse of governance in the future. The dominance of said corporations actually came in the wake of increased robotisation of jobs and the outbreak of World War III – not to mention the degradation of the Earth – leading to the rise of Hollowpoints.

Players will team up in squads of four and can buy different weapons and items while upgrading their character’s skills in order to complete the task at hand. Hollowpoint’s levels are procedurally generated, which ensures you’ll never have the same mission twice.

Hollowpoint will be out on PS4 and PC this year.
