- DevLog #3 - How Survival Shapes Phantom Line - 5 August 2026
In this DevLog, we explore a core feature we’ve barely talked about until now! 🙌Survival is more than staring at a hunger bar - it exists to ground you in the world. In Phantom Line, it naturally ties into other aspects of the game, such as managing inventory space, looting, and preparing for missions. We see it as a small but meaningful part of the experience that complements our other features.We’ve rebuilt survival alongside our other core systems to be modular, flexible, and rock-solid. This gives us the foundation to continue building new mechanics that work together seamlessly. Hazard zones (used for toxic gas and radiation) are a great example of that. Watch the DevLog to see how it all comes together for the kind of immersive gameplay that defines Phantom Line.Watch DevLog ❤️DevLogs are in-depth looks at what we’ve been building behind the scenes, where we share what went wrong…

- Phantom Line is a Helldivers style FPS from ex Cyberpunk 2077 devs, demo out now - 29 January 2025
Almost a year ago to the day, Arrowhead dropped Helldivers 2. Perfectly balancing Starship Troopers-esque satire with a simple yet fun gameplay loop, the futuristic co-op shooter was everywhere for months on end, spiking at a colossal 450,000 players on PC alone. While a series of awkward balance changes and the infamous PlayStation Network account link controversy hit the game hard, it remains one of 2024's biggest winners. But there's still room for newcomers to muscle their way into the fray, and Phantom Line , a co-op FPS from a team of ex-Bioshock and Cyberpunk 2077 devs, is designed to do just that.
