Developed by Hologryph and TowerHaus, the game is set on a procedurally generated desert planet where civilization has collapsed. Players control a giant mobile base called the Trampler, which functions as transportation, storage, shelter, and weapon. The game supports solo or team play, with players looting other players and NPCs while extracting valuable resources. A server slam playtest began on June 6 and runs until the evening of June 7 European time; participants can join via the Steam store page and will receive a special weapon skin for the full game. The game also features a battle royale mode called Storm Dive Mode, where the safe zone shrinks and players fight to be the last survivor. The Trampler can be customized with different structures, engines, and weapons. The game supports Japanese display.","whyItMatters":"The June 10 release date and concurrent server test give players a short window to try the game before its full launch, a tactic that can build momentum for a niche PvPvE title.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eThe game is set in an alternate-history 1910, following a different timeline from the real world. The people of Galicia, a region of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, return to the desolate land of Sophie to fight over valuable resources. The desert map is procedurally generated each time a player enters. The Trampler is a giant multi-legged mobile base that functions as transportation, a warehouse to protect loot, a shelter from the environment, and a weapon.

The server slam that began June 6 allows players to experience Trampler customization, battles against enemy Tramplers, and the Storm Dive Mode.
