Freedom Wars Remastered: Enhanced Gameplay and New Features Revealed
A new trailer for Freedom Wars Remastered showcases the game's revamped gameplay and control systems, along with significant enhancements. This action RPG, set in a dystopian world, tasks players with battling massive mechanical creatures (Abductors), gathering resources, upgrading equipment, and completing various missions to serve their Panopticon (city-state). The core gameplay loop—fight, harvest, upgrade, repeat—remains, but with substantial improvements. Launching January 10th on PS4, PS5, Switch, and PC, Freedom Wars Remastered includes all original customization DLC.
The game puts players in the role of a Sinner, convicted simply for being born, in a world depleted of natural resources. Missions range from citizen rescue and Abductor destruction to capturing crucial control systems, playable solo or cooperatively online.

- Faster-Paced Gameplay: Improved mechanics, increased movement speed, and the ability to cancel weapon attacks contribute to a more dynamic and responsive gameplay experience.
