Recore was originally announced during E3 2015, and was released September 13, 2016. If you haven’t heard too much about the game it is an open-world adventure that follows Joule Adams. Here is the synopsis from the official website:

“You are Joule Adams, a young survivor of a terrible cataclysm who journeys from Earth to the desert world, “Far Eden” to build mankind’s new home. But when Joule wakes after centuries in cryo-sleep, nothing has gone according to plan… With her “Corebot” companion, Mack, Joule begins an adventure to unlock secrets from the past, defeat powerful foes, and bring new life and hope to Far Eden. The Far Eden colony was meant to be a paradise, where humans and Corebots could build a future together. Now, however, most of the Corebots have gone rogue, and the planet is plagued by violent sandstorms. In some areas these storms come and go, altering the terrain and revealing new areas to explore and new challenges to overcome.”

Recore was co-developed by Level-5 Comcept, the studio behind Mighty No. 9, and Armature Studio and will be available for $19.99 on August 29th. Will you be picking up Recore: Definitive Edition? Let us know in the comments below.
