Project C is an online open-world game from Assassin’s Creed and Half-Life 2 vets

Darewise Entertainment wants to make a different kind of online game, and it’s hoping that it can enlist like-minded gamers to try it. The developer is ready to let people play Project C, the codename of its huge open-world third-person multiplayer game, in a pre-alpha state on PC starting next week.

Built on Unreal Engine 4, Project C takes place on Corvus, an abandoned planet teeming with alien wildlife, technology, and natural resources. Instead of following a scripted story, the game encourages players to collaborate with each other to form clans and sustain a player-driven economy. Gathering resources will help your clan build settlements, and you can fight or trade with other players (everyone will be playing in the same world).
