Hybrid is Vulcan's first game to be entirely developed using their Mother3D engine, and benefits from an impressive array of engine features, which include "advanced physics, complex AI, and fully interactive environments".
Hybrid, an official selection of Microsoft's Summer of Arcade, is a tactical 3rd-person multiplayer shooter that pits players against one another in fast-paced 3-vs-3 air and ground combat matches across a massive online world war.
Running at 60 FPS, Hybrid introduces revolutionary and intuitive flight-based cover-to-cover movements to create a shooter experience like no-other. Hybrid features character customization through upgradeable weapons, abilities, and upgrades with over 10 different maps and 6 unique game modes, and an offline practice arena.
Set on Earth in the year 2032, the world was sent into turmoil when an alien species unexpectedly appears. Hybrid centers around a worldwide conflict between that species known as the Variant and a rebel human faction called Paladins. Players will be enveloped in a massive world war where every battle, in every district, factors into the status of the worldwide conflict and builds upon the unique persistent experience of Hybrid.
