Slay Giants Sooner Than Expected
Less than a year after its Summer 2017 announcement, Iron Galaxy and Modus Games have revealed the release date for their epic Fantasy game. In Extinction, you are all that stands between the populace and otherworldly giants, and you can get to hunting this April.
On April 10th, Extinction will be available for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. You’ll take on the role of Avil, the last of the legendary Sentinels. Since you’re all that stands between humanity and gigantic beasts known as Ravenii, the stakes are high. The game revolves around skill-based combat that has you scaling these monsters in the effort to halt their wicked advances. Since different beasts have different weak points, creativity is a must. One of the greatest aspects of the experience, however, is customization of your skill tree.
There is a myriad of ways to take down Ravenii, not all of them easy – Part of the fun is developing an optimal strategy. The game may surprise you with new kinds of battles, but no matter what, you’ll always be David against the Goliath. For more information on abilities, you can view our dedicated coverage here.
Extinction will arrive as Standard and Deluxe Edition, and they will be available for $59.99 and $69.99 USD respectively. The Deluxe Edition includes the “Days of Dolorum” Season Pass, the features of which we suspect will be revealed soon. If you decide to pre-order the game, you’ll receive in-game bonuses based on the retailer you select.

- GameStop – Two exclusive trials titled “Last Legs” and “Heads, You Win”: Work against the clock as you hone your ogre-slaying skills.
