- Exoborne release date estimate, trailers, gameplay, and more - 25 February 2025
What is the Exoborne release date? Vampire the Masquerade Bloodhunt developer Sharkmob has turned its expertise from battle royale to extraction shooter with Exoborne, and the post-apocalyptic sci-fi shooter could go down a storm; not least because of its impressive extreme weather tech. Fans of Ubisoft's Division series, particularly the Dark Zone mechanic, will have an inkling as to how Exoborne may turn out; Sharkmob was started by ex-Division honchos, after all. Below you'll find everything we know about Exoborne so far, including our best estimate for when the multiplayer game will launch, the latest trailers, and more. Read the rest of the story...

- Exoborne's freak weather can help it break the extraction shooter curse - 22 February 2025
The extraction shooter boom has been more of a poot than an explosion as of late. Creative Assembly's Hyenas laughed its last in late 2023, while Ubisoft's The Division Heartlands had a stake driven through it last year. Upcoming efforts Marathon and ARC Raiders have avoided the chop so far, but the lack of games making it to market, alongside the failures of those like Rainbow Six Extraction, proves this isn't an easy genre to nail. This hasn't deterred Vampire the Masquerade Bloodhunt developer Sharkmob, which is baring its fangs with the post-apocalyptic Exoborne . Having delved into the latest playtest, the studio's vision could not be clearer, and it could just whip up a storm. Read the rest of the story...

What does Armageddon look like to you? Is it a nuclear exchange a la Fallout? A fast-spreading zombie virus in the vein of World War Z and The Last of Us? Or is it more like an old-school disaster movie? I lean towards the latter; humanity's downfall will come at the hands of Mother Nature, with tornadoes and earthquakes reshaping the earth. It's not exactly the happiest of topics, sure, but it's a reality we'll have to face in Exoborne , a gritty new extraction shooter from Sharkmob.

- Exoborne Preview – Exhilarating Three-Player Extraction Chaos - 28 January 2025
It has been the decade of the extraction shooter. The gaming landscape today is packed with a deep catalogue of titles in the genre, and with so much competition, projects must stand out to make an impact. That’s exactly where Sharkmob fits in with its latest endeavour, Exoborne . The game introduces a fictional dystopian United States after societal collapse, a corrupt corporation exacerbating a climate change disaster, and, most importantly, exhilarating, edge-of-your-seat gameplay that sets it apart from being just another extraction shooter. Exoborne is set in a decimated fictional location in the southern U.S. called Colton County. In this capitalist society, a corporation called Rebirth pushed propaganda onto civilians, offering hope for a bright future—or simply any future in the face of impending climate disaster. But Project Rebirth was a lie. Instead of delivering salvation, R…
