Summary

  • Sharkmob has launched a public playtest for its upcoming open-world extraction shooter Exoborne, which combines features from Just Cause, Anthem and PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds.
  • The playtest is running from January 26 to February 17, with access available via Steam.

  • The game is designed for groups of three and features a home hub area and exo-rigs that function like RPG classes.
