Active Matter

About the game

Active Matter takes place in a multiverse where an operative is trapped in a time loop and returns to the same point after dying. A network of quantum unstable zones holds active matter, a resource described as both the most valuable and the most dangerous. Its properties distort space and time, producing anomalies, and some survivors lose their minds after exposure to the substance. PvPvE raids are played solo or in small squads, and other players remain the most dangerous enemy. Active matter is obtained by killing transformed creatures, taking it from rivals or collecting it from clusters, after which the zone must be left before it ceases to exist. A syndicate base serves for upgrading the arsenal, syndicates fight over sources of active matter, and weapons and gear are rooted in real-world military technology. Maps exist outside space and time boundaries and include a large island with industrial complexes and science labs. A network connection is required, with up to 16 players supported.

Description from PS Store

You’re an operative stuck in a time loop, always brought back from the dead to the same point. Choose your loadout and enter quantum unstable zones rich with active matter – the most valuable and the most dangerous resource in all multiverse. Fight against rivals from other timelines, survive physics-breaking anomalies and try to stay alive. Harvest active matter, gather loot and extract to a safe place before the whole zone ceases to exist with everything inside it. Active matter changes things and bends space and time, so you might encounter operatives and other survivors that lost their mind and humanity after exposure to this substance. Other players, though, would always be your most dangerous enemy. Expand your syndicate base, upgrade your arsenal and participate in fierce battles between syndicates over the key sources of active matter, as they’re your only chance to break out of the loop and gain control over your destiny.   PvPvE extraction-style raids Players go solo or in small squads inside the quantum unstable zones in their quest for active matter and other loot. Active matter can be harvested by killing AM-transformed creatures, taken away from other players or picked up directly from active matter clusters. Join this never ending hunt to improve your chances to find the way out of the time loop. Realistic weapons and gear Active matter randomly brings things from other timelines to the quantum unstable zones and allows you to replicate a specific item from other timelines in the safety of your base. Despite the mysterious origin of your weapons, your arsenal is always rooted in real-world military technologies and tactics, as war seems to be the only constant in this chaotic multiverse. Gameplay-influencing active matter effects Mind-bending anomalies that change gravitational force and space topology right in front of your eyes.Thrilling encounters with eerie SCP-inspired objects would send shivers down your spine, and creatures transformed by active matter would attack you on sight. Intense PvP battles Syndicates fight over control of a passive source of active matter or an AM-based tech, using all the weapons, military vehicles and other gear they can bring into battle or craft on site. Join the syndicate you like and make a real impact on the fate of the multiverse! Fascinating maps Battles take place at locations that exist outside of space and time boundaries. Active Matter features a variety of maps, including a huge island with rusty Soviet industrial complexes and cryptic science labs that were among the first to study this new phenomena. Explore these places to find hints on the origin of active matter. Standard
