Dean “Rocket” Hall, the creator of DayZ took to the stage at E3 2015 during Microsoft’s press conference to announce an all new game called ION.
Details are extremely scarce about the title, but the game appears to be entirely set in space. Inspired by the cult favourite Space Station 13, ION is described as an emergent narrative massively-multiplayer online game in which players will build, live in and inevitably die in huge floating galactic constructions as humanity makes its first steps colonizing the universe.
Technology from Improbable allows ION to have a massive interconnected universe with fully simulated environments such as power grids, air pressure and heat; all to help stave off the unending vacuum of space.
The game is coming first on PC and Xbox One Game Preview Program.
