Halo-like Shooter Disintegration Launches in June

Disintegration’s story takes place in a future where overpopulation, famine, and disease have nearly wiped out humanity – forcing humans to replace their organic bodies with robot alternatives. It’s hard to envision, I know: but soon, we’ll be able to learn more about this potential future for ourselves, as Disintegration is set to be released in full on June 16th. Oh, and there’s also a new story trailer for you to check out.

Developed by V1 Interactive and published by Private Division (with Halo co-creator Marcus Lehto serving as director), Disintegration is a sci-fi FPS that includes both a single-player story and multiplayer. It will cost £39.99 and is already available for pre-order on Steam and Xbox One (with some bonus cosmetics), and it will also be released on PlayStation 4.

There’s also a new trailer that gives us a closer look at Disintegration’s narrative. The story follows Romer Shoal as he tries to “reboot humanity” and save the human race from the Rayonne, a group that has been compelling humans to essentially become hive-mind machines. And there’s plenty of Gravcycle action (basically pod racing).

At last year’s E3, I got to check out some of Disintegration’s multiplayer gameplay and sat down with Lehto to discuss the game’s narrative themes – so be sure to check out the piece if the dystopian story intrigues you. Or, you know, just watch the news.
