On March 21, NetEase Games is hosting a visual arts session, presented by Abel Zhang. Not only is this a first for the company at GDC, it's also a first for any Chinese developer.
Galactic Frontline – A real-time sci-fi strategy adventure
Galactic Frontline is a new real-time sci-fi strategy game developed and published by NetEase Games. Featuring realistic 3D graphics and cutting-edge visual effects, the game takes players to the heart of a galaxy on the brink of war. Advanced lighting and textures, coupled with innovative animation techniques and stirring music, make the game a realistic, cinematic experience. Thanks to global matchmaking, players can battle against the world's best players in their bid for galactic domination. Galactic Frontline is on show at this year's GDC, so gamers will be able to get a sneak peek at the game's amazing graphics, explosive action and deep, strategic gameplay.
A Galaxy at War
The game also features a rich, compelling story centred on the conflict between three races, each with their own motivations, attributes and culture.
The Zoltarians, an ancient, warlike race, were once forced from their home system by a parasitic invasion. They survived, adapted and later established a large empire under a military dictator, the Grand Marshal. Honor and strength are the twin pillars that hold up their civilization.
The Terrans have left a dying solar system in search of a new home among the stars. Advanced AI and nuclear fusion have allowed them to explore the vast expanses of the galaxy. Their long search may now be over, but their appearance has caused great alarm for the Zoltarians and the Ensari.
The Ensari, a devout people, have only six stellar calendars (around 500 Earth years) of recorded history, and yet are the most technologically advanced race in the galaxy. Their society is based on the teachings of shadowy beings, the Envara. The rapid development they've enjoyed is due, in part, to their cultivation and mastery of a mysterious energy source known only to themselves: Sarvaa Crystals.
Command Your Way
As the game's presentation at GDC shows, whether you prefer battling against other captains or exploring the galaxy in story mode, there's something for every gamer to enjoy in Galactic Frontline. Its breath-taking visuals, tactical complexity and adrenaline-pumping action are bringing real-time sci-fi strategy back to the forefront of mobile gaming.
