They’ll embrace high risks in pursuit of greater rewards, battling against other players, warring factions, and the relentless forces of nature.

“We’ve been conducting closed tests both online and in our studio for quite some time," says Brynley Gibson, Executive Producer. "But this marks our first large-scale test, and it’s an incredibly exciting milestone for us. By entering this stage of open collaboration with the community, we’re eager to gather invaluable insights and feedback that will drive us to elevate the game to new heights.
A World Broken by Nature’s Fury
Exoborne thrusts players into a hostile world devastated by the unyielding power of nature. Among the few survivors are the Reborn—former followers of Project Rebirth - now rebels fighting for truth and justice.
As one of the Reborn, players battle for scarce resources in a land plagued by extreme weather phenomena, rogue enemy factions, and dangers lurking at every turn. In this treacherous world, their greatest threat may come from within, as the battle for survival pits everyone against each other—so they can trust no one, as other players will seek to outmanoeuvre each other.
 
Exo-Rigs: Survival Tools and Tactical Platforms
The Reborn wield powerful Exo-Rigs, versatile tools of survival and combat that can be customized to suit individual goals and missions. From weathering deadly storms to leveraging the forces of nature in battle, players can adapt their Exo-Rigs for survival, enhanced movement and tactical domination of the battlefield.
With high-stakes extraction gameplay and a dynamic blend of PvPvE elements, Exoborne challenges players to strategize, adapt, and thrive in an unforgiving world
