IfSunSets: A Captivating Survival RPG Adventure Launches Early Access
SEOUL, South Korea, Nov. 4, 2024 — Global gaming company Smilegate has unveiled its highly anticipated survival RPG adventure, IfSunSets, set to launch globally in Early Access on November 5, 2024. Available on PC via Steam for $19.99 USD, players can enjoy a special 10% discount during the Early Access period, bringing the price down to $17.99 until November 18. Developed by the indie studio POLYMORPH, IfSunSets promises a unique blend of exploration, combat, and survival mechanics in an expansive, immersive world.
A New Era in Survival Games
With its Early Access debut, IfSunSets offers engaging gameplay features including both single-player and online co-op modes. The game supports multiple languages: English, German, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Korean, and Japanese, making it accessible to a wide audience. "Our small team of eight is dedicated to building a polished game that provides something truly new within the survival genre," stated Byunghun Cho, CEO of POLYMORPH.
Player-Centric Development
The development team has put a strong emphasis on community feedback, conducting a playtest in September that helped shape the game’s launch content. "Based on these insights, we will be incorporating various improvements and new content into the Early Access version," continued Cho. Key upcoming features include the implementation of a World Selection Mode, enhancements to the skill system, improvements for night defense, and numerous bug fixes.
Dynamic Day-Night Cycles
One of the standout features of IfSunSets is its dynamic day-night cycle, which fundamentally alters gameplay experiences. During the day, players engage in resource gathering—hunting, farming, fishing, and crafting materials—while battling ancient bosses and cursed monsters. As night descends, the game’s mechanics shift dramatically into survival horror, with players facing relentless hordes of monsters that require strategic thinking and careful planning to survive until morning.
Game Modes and Core Features
The Early Access phase will introduce five distinct game modes to cater to various player preferences:
- Standard MODE: Zombies are present, introducing traditional survival challenges.
- Safe Night MODE: A zombie-free world, perfect for exploration without the imminent threat.
- Custom MODE: Tailor the game to your liking, adjusting settings to create your ideal experience.
- Easy and Hard MODE: For players seeking a challenge, zombies make their presence known.
IfSunSets offers several core features that enhance the gameplay experience:
- Vast Open World: Discover the island’s ancient secrets while collecting resources such as mystical ores—’Cthugha Stones’—to write your own survival narrative.
- Innovative Building: Construct custom fortifications equipped with traps and obstacles to withstand the impending night terrors.
- Intense Battles: Engage in action-packed combat against cursed monsters and formidable bosses to enhance weapons and armor.
- Thrilling Monster Waves: Each night brings a new challenge as players must fend off overwhelming hordes of monsters.
Future Updates and Enhancements
As the early access period progresses, POLYMORPH plans to introduce additional gameplay elements, including controller support, a new Coastal Region, and an exciting new dungeon named the "Coastal Dungeon." This commitment to constant improvement underscores the studio’s dedication to delivering a comprehensive gaming experience.
