• Summary: Shattered Horizon is the first game from Futuremark Games Studio that immerses you in the cold reality of combat in space. This multiplayer first-person shooter is played entirely in zero gravity. A catastrophic explosion on the Moon has filled near-Earth space with billions of tons of rocky debris. You and your friends will join intense 32 player battles to control hollowed-out asteroids, huge fragments of Moon rock and the ruined remains of the International Space Station. With simple and intuitive controls, you have complete freedom of movement in the distinctive zero gravity environments. Not only can you use your rocket pack to fly anywhere but you can also land on any surface to attack your enemies from unexpected angles. Shattered Horizon challenges you to take your FPS skills to the next level adapting what you have learned on the battlefield to create new tactics in a fully three dimensional battle space. With your rifle at the ready you can handle anything the enemy can throw at you. But if you let go of your gun, chances are you're already dead. [Steam] Expand

  1. Shattered Horizon manages to expand the first person shooter genre by literally another dimension. Sadly enough it is very well possible that this title might be relegated to a niche existence because of its originality.
  2. Given its particular nature, Shattered Horizon inevitably generates mixed feelings. On the one hand, we can consider the strategic elements inherent in the particular physical scenario, on the other the lack of nice locations to support them. Maybe it's worth a try.
  3. Futuremark could have made a great multiplayer shooter out of this concept, but, alas, they decided to sell a glorified tech demo.

    This, for sure, is one of my favorite games. The controls are extremely simple to learn, unless you are a hardcore fps gamer that plays 8 hours a day. I personally think that having only 1 gun is magic. Having lots of guns and mods can be totally daunting and there are certain combinations that are extremely overpowered(Im looking at YOU, CoD MW2.) Having only 4 maps is a slight dis-advantage, but after playing for a couple hours, just flip upside down and it is a whole new map! I enjoy the game having such high requirments. Basically everyones computer dosn't suck and there is minimal lag. I also like to just somtimes stop, and look out into space, the graphics are amazing. Plus if you have any suggestions, they have an open, active forum you can post on. If Futuremark studios just opened some modding options, it would complete the game for me. This title is extremely original and innovative. I would say a must own if your computer can play it. Expand

    Very steep learning curve for this game, expect to be killed almost instantly, over and over. Also, the lack of weapon variety is pretty disappointing. The control system could be substantially better, as well. Expand

    I played this game for about 2 weeks after release day, and the player count has been steadily falling. Any positive points I could give it are soon taken away when you realize the developers have no interest in keeping it alive. Sure the graphics are pretty and the space idea is neat, but the game has so little content that it basically killed itself. I also find it silly that it takes roughly 30 bullets to kill a person, while a melee can kill in one swipe. The community is also full of immature little kids and teamkillers. Expand
