Surviving in Eden Rising is tricky when monsters of all sizes are waiting to strike. You’ll have to learn how to tackle these enemies and forage for items to craft better gear and upgrade your base.
Eden Rising uses an action-combat style paired with an open world to create an explorer’s (dangerous) dream. With both sci-fi and fantasy elements, you will be able to see some very creatively-designed monsters and places born of tech and imagination. Don’t fall into too much of a trance though, as the wandering creatures pack a punch for the inattentive.
If you feel that the odds are somewhat against you, you can bring in up to 8 additional friends. Some of those gigantic beasts may require some extra help, after all. Or you can go in solo – just make sure you’re ready for the fight of your life.
Defeating monsters will get you parts for crafting, which is a main component of the game. Items retrieved from fallen enemies (as well as items you can gather by finding the right fauna) are what you need to create stronger gear and strengthen your base. Your base is your home, so you’ll want to fortify it well. It will have to hold up against relentless attacks of hordes of these monsters (who might be slightly peeved about you and your eight friends killing their buddies). You’ll probably want to strike a good balance between using parts for your personal upgrades or base upgrades to stay intact.
Eden Rising is available now on Steam.
