Overview

SHRAPNEL plunges players into a gritty, near-future Earth ravaged by an asteroid impact. In 2043, five years after the Sigma-38 asteroid struck the Moon and created a 500km-wide "Sacrifice Zone" on Earth, a volatile new element called Sigma has been discovered within the impact debris. The Valdacha Corporation has initiated a "Sigma Recovery Operation," and you and your four-person squad are tasked with deploying into this dangerous territory to secure the valuable resource and extract.

However, the mission is far from straightforward. The Sacrifice Zone is a lawless expanse, teeming with rival squads also vying for Sigma.

Players will need to coordinate with their teammates, utilize unique character abilities, and adapt to a hostile environment where lunar meteorites continue to fall. Success hinges on securing Sigma and escaping before succumbing to the competition or the unforgiving landscape.
