Moscow developers announced DISTORTION, a role-playing game based on Unreal Engine 5

Game Art Pioneers and the RTA group of companies have announced the joint development of DISTORTION, a new story-driven RPG with RTS elements.

DISTORTION combines science fiction, fantasy, war drama and high tragedy. The game takes place in a unique middlepunk environment, and the story is dedicated to mutual support and unity in the face of an insurmountable threat. The original and detailed game world of DISTORTION organically continues the philosophy and style of cyberpunk in synthesis with medieval fantasy, offering the player a look at the dark and harsh history of the apocalypse.

DISTORTION has been in development for over a year now, with a release scheduled for 2025. The game will be released on PC and current generation consoles. In the future, it is planned to expand the franchise and release products for both mobile devices and other platforms.

The General Producer commented on the announcement of the game: Creating our debut game, we are guided by the gaming and professional experience we have. We try to bring into it those aspects that we ourselves want to see in high-budget RPGs. DISTORTION is an epic of self-determination amidst global upheaval, where the fates of several protagonists are revealed in the context of dramatic events that will not await the player.
