Elementite

Elementite is a third-person shooter RPG set in the ruins of a metropolis in the distant future. You play as Chrono, a former fighter for the Global Council who escaped from a research lab after experiments with Elementite awakened his ability to control time. Hunted for this power, he fights with close-quarters skills and firearms imbued with natural elements.

A world changed by Elementite

Elementite is a mineral that can strengthen the human body, awaken a natural element and make a person immune to almost anything harmful, including firearms. In some people, it grants powerful control over elements. Corporations and organizations turned the formula used to strengthen people into a source of profit, and its use spread unchecked around the world.

Decades later, overuse of the mineral has caused diseases, loss of consciousness and other side effects, while groups with pure Elementite have developed extraordinary physical abilities. Governments have fallen, society has collapsed, and powerful companies control the mineral’s extraction and research. Private armies, terrorist groups, rebel factions and addicts roam cities at war over it, while civilians remain trapped in their homes. The metropolis where the game begins lies in the aftermath of a war that ended the world’s last democratic government.

Chrono and the conflict

Chrono is a talented former soldier of the Global Council. He fought alongside Brigit, his ex-girlfriend, for years across the globe to prevent civilization’s collapse. After the Council fell, the Corporation captured him and subjected him to experiments that awakened powers he had never known.

Elemental combat

Combat has two modes: melee and shooting. In melee, Chrono uses a knife imbued with the time element from his own body, combining attacks and abilities that affect time and space, including teleportation, slowing and time dilation. At higher levels, he can also acquire physical strikes using other elements through the skill shop.

In shooter mode, Chrono can use up to four firearms at once, firing ammunition imbued with fire, ice, electricity or poison. Elementite makes enemies immune to damage from their own element, so you must switch weapons and target each enemy’s elemental weakness in real time. Ice enemies take fire damage, while fire enemies take poison damage.

Skills and missions

Chrono earns talent points when he levels up and can invest them in three areas: Power for damage, Vitality for resistance and Agility for time skills. Skill trees let you develop him to suit your play style, and an inventory holds resources for crafting.

You can approach combat stealthily or with weapons. The open world includes primary and secondary missions, and you can replay levels as many times as you want. The game also features new armor, firearms and melee weapons, battle arenas in other dimensions, cinematics and dynamic boss battles.
