New trailer at The MIX Spring Showcase details launch date for highly anticipated road trip-inspired shooter, playable level at PAX East 2024
AALBORG, Denmark — March 15, 2024 — Phantom Fury, the road movie-inspired first-person shooter starring Ion Fury’s Shelly “Bombshell” Harrison, developed by Slipgate Ironworks and published by 3D Realms, comes to PC on Tuesday, April 23, with console versions launching later this year, as revealed during The MIX Spring Showcase. Fans that will attend PAX East will have the chance to get a quick taste of the Crater Bar level on March 21-24, 2024 at Booth #18019.
Suit up and head out on an all-new adventure as Shelly “Bombshell” Harrison, taking place years after the events of Ion Fury. After awakening from a coma with a shiny new bionic arm, Harrison takes on a new mission: journeying across the United States to track down a deadly artifact called the Demon Core.
Set off on a cross-country trip filled with over-the-top action sequences inspired by classic road movies. Survive shootouts at a seedy motel in Albuquerque, cause chaos in Chicago, and launch an assault on a Los Alamos research facility with Shelly’s exhaustive arsenal of over 20 weapons.
Tackle enemy encounters creatively – and explosively – across each highly interactive environment. Charge in with reckless abandon, wielding the Motherflakker– an armor-piercing shotgun–or take a more calculated approach by monitoring in-game computers and tossing Bowling Bombs toward groups of unsuspecting foes. Each of the over 20 weapons features unlockable upgrades and mods, allowing for a wide array of options no matter the odds Shelly faces.
Utilize Shelly’s bionic arm and enhance her combat capabilities with a suite of enhancements like shock-inducing punches and bullet-blocking shields as she fights against dangerous cyborgs, souped-up soldiers, and freakish mutations. Square off against larger-than-life boss battles and soar through the skies during pilotable helicopter sequences with plenty of explosions to go around.
“Shelly makes her triumphant return in Phantom Fury’s standalone adventure, and we can’t wait for fans to dive straight into the action,” said Frederik Schreiber, CEO of 3D Realms. “After planning this title for over a decade, we’re thrilled to get this action-packed FPS in the hands of players around the world.”
Phantom Fury launches on PC Tuesday, April 23, 2024 for $24.99, with console version available later this year. Fans will have the opportunity to play the Crater Bar level at PAX East on March 21-24, 2024 at Booth #18019.
