Monothetic, a small independent studio in San Francisco, today announced its new sci-fi shooter title Beacon that will be coming soon on Xbox One. In this game we will play as Freja, a pilot died shortly after the crash of his space shuttle on an unknown planet. Fortunately, thanks to the function of the shuttle to automatically create clones, Freja will revive and continue his adventure.

At Beacon we will fight in a hostile world procedurally generated and we will have the task of seeking the materials required to build a beacon and escape the planet on which we are trapped.

During our adventure, which will take place with overhead/isometric, find weapons and useful items that will help us and we will be able to collect even the DNA of defeated enemies: once we killed, we will combine them with our for upgrading through physical mutations in order to better address the next levels. At the moment there is still no official launch date for the game, but we will keep you updated of course; We leave you with the first trailer and some pictures.
