Dreadlands Announced as Online Turn-Based Game from Fatshark and Blackfox

Dreadlands Announced

Fatshark Games are proud to announce a title published by them and developed by Blackfox Studios – Online Turn-Based Dreadlands. This turn-based skirmish title is set in a post-apocalyptic world, where your gang of misfits one of many in this Shared World. Players will frequently encounter one another, and sometimes they will cooperate. Other times, it leads to bloody, pitched PVP battles. Blackfox Studios is led by former senior Fatshark developer Peter Nilsson, and the game is set in the lush and vivid post-apocalyptic world of Krater.

“With Dreadlands we want to take the online elements of an MMO or a shared world shooter and combine it with addictive turn-based gameplay” says Peter Nilsson, founder and Creative Director Blackfox Studios.

Build your gang from any of the distinctly different factions inhabiting Dreadlands. Level up and unlock new spectacular tactics to use on the battlefield. Manage your base by purchasing upgrades. And find unique artifacts to combine into new powerful gear.

“Peter’s concept is unique, to have all players in a shared world running PvE challenges and PvP matches at their choosing. At Fatshark we are fans of turn-based games, and are super stoked to team up with Blackfox Studios on this title” says Martin Wahlund, CEO Fatshark.
