Shadowgrounds Survive North America Through Meridian

Game publisher Meridian4 and developer Frozenbyte have announced the signing of a North American publishing agreement to publish the latest title in the Shadowgrounds series, Shadowgrounds Survivor. Meridian4 and Frozenbyte have collaborated before making the decision to partner once again easy.

Shadowgrounds was an underground PC hit last year. Meridian4 is confident gamers will return in droves for more non-stop shooting action to make the spin-off/sequel Survivor an instant hit. Shadowgrounds Survivor is slated to be available online and in stores later this year.

Shadowgrounds Survivor tells the story of three survivors who join forces with the last remaining human resistance in the heated battle against the ongoing alien onslaught. The acclaimed atmosphere and gameplay mechanics of the original Shadowgrounds make a triumphant return armed with a new feature set!

• 3 playable characters, each with impressive new tactics
• RPG-like upgrade system for weapons and characters; including special attacks such as the all-engrossing Napalm Flame and the mighty Brute Slayer
• New gameplay features such as the Sentry Turret and the powerful Mech!
• Campaign mode short of filler and full of action, running parallel to the Shadowgrounds story and expanding it to new locations, including snow and ice environments, gritty sewers and the suffering New Atlantis colony
• Survival mode where the player is pitted against hordes of alien monsters – the clock is ticking and they just keep on coming!
• New graphics enhancements, including raging snowstorm effects, new weapon effects and much more!
• Integrated physics that bring the world alive with hundreds of physics objects, taking the destruction to the next level
• New original soundtrack composed by praised Shadowgrounds composer Ari Pulkkinen
• On-disc Editor tools, sample missions and modding Wiki for easy modding; take part in the Shadowgrounds mod community and create mods for the Campaign or the Survival mode – or just enjoy the results of others!
