What it is
Chaser is a first-person science-fiction shooter from Cauldron, set in a future shaped by corporate power on Mars. In 2044, the UN creates MARSCORP to oversee Martian security and economics. Its director, Samuel Longwood, gradually gains control through opaque licensing and alliances with corporations. When dissenters challenge his rule, Chaser wakes aboard the H.M.S. Majestic with no memory of his identity or why armed men are pursuing him. The single-player story follows his search for answers from the ship to Montack City on Earth, Siberia and Mars. The game is built on Cauldron’s cloakNT engine and features large environments. Its listed genres include cyberpunk, science fiction and first-person shooter. Chaser is available for Windows, with Steam features including single-player, multiplayer and Family Sharing.
