Our take on EARTH'S DAWN
Its defining structure is a side-scrolling action campaign where mission selection changes the story, alongside character development through a large ability tree.
What is EARTH'S DAWN?
Earth’s Dawn is a side-scrolling action game about A.
N. T. I. , a squad of super-human soldiers using alien technology against the E. B. E. invasion. Combat combines swords, guns, agility moves, and combo-building during battles with invading enemies and large bosses. Experience points open abilities across a broad skill tree, while materials collected during missions can be used to make weapons and equipment. Players create a soldier by adjusting skills and selecting equipment for a preferred combat style. Missions offer different paths, and the chosen route affects the story as the campaign reveals the cause of the invasion and the effort to reclaim Earth.
