Assassin's Creed Odyssey hit stores two weeks ago and Ubisoft is ready to launch another promising sandbox title. Ubisoft Toronto, creators of Splinter Cell: Blacklist, has spent the last couple of years developing a brand new IP that will try to fill the niche created after the Disney Infinity closure and sell additional toys that will improve your Starlink: Battle for Atlas experience as a toys-to-life title.
In Starlink: Battle for Atlas, players take control of a customizable ship and set out on an adventure to save the Atlas Star system from the Forgotten Legion, an ancient army that won't stop until the last pieces of a dangerous technology are found and collected. Just like in the controversial No Man's Sky, you will travel from one planet to another, but Starlink's galaxy in much smaller and more detailed.
The Nintendo Switch version of Stalink allows you to play as the Star Fox crew, forgotten characters from Nintendo's catalogue. The first reviews for Stalink: Battle for Atlas are out and it sounds like the fans of Fox and younger players who disliked No Man's Sky will be pleased as Ubisoft developed yet again satisfying open-world experience. In the meantime, check out the game's opening scenes:
In Starlink: Battle for Atlas, you’re part of a group of heroic interstellar pilots, dedicated to saving the Atlas star system from the Forgotten Legion, an evil robot force. Starlink: Battle for Atlas offers a whole new gameplay experience: build your own modular Starship model, mount it on your controller, and take part in epic space combats. Equip your model with different parts and your Starship changes in game in real time. Assemble your fleet, mix and match your pilots, Starships and weapons to create your own play style and defeat the enemy.
Starlink: Battle for Atlas launches on October 16, 2018 for Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, PC, and PS4.
