Iron Galaxy and Maximum Games announced today a new fast-paced action game, Extinction. In Extinction, players will fight massive ogres and their minions across a sprawling countryside, defending cities and rescuing native villagers torn from their homes.
Moreover, players will be able to use the dynamic skill-based combat system to tactically disarm and dismember enemies before going in for the kill.
Kraig Kujawa, Game Director at Iron Galaxy, said:
“Extinction is absolutely relentless. We’re really happy with the fast, fluid feel of the game and we’re looking forward to showing it behind closed doors at E3.”
Derek Neal, Executive Producer at Maximum Games, added:
“As the protagonist tasked with a huge undertaking – both in fighting enormous ogres and saving humans from disaster – each player’s experience will be varied, as the landscapes and battle situations are never identical.”
Here are the game’s key features:
- Deep Story Campaign. Protect the human population across an abundant story campaign, rescuing as many civilians as possible and taking down brutal opponents.
- Dynamic Side Missions. Complete numerous side missions with various objectives, earning upgrades to aid you in your campaign.
- Skill-Based Combat. Travel horizontally and vertically, perform wall runs, and use your whip as a vault to perform devastating air assaults. Master dynamic combat maneuvers to effectively traverse the giant beasts and expose their weak points, progressing along different skill trees to develop a path best suited to your playstyle.
- Interactive Environment. Move freely around a fully destructible environment, and use objects throughout the world to your strategic advantage.
- Innumerable Battle Scenarios. Every battlefield is different from the last, ensuring a unique combat situation each time you play.
- Custom Battles. Create custom battlegrounds with varied objectives, and challenge players online to compete for the top score.
- Extinction Mode. Fight off a continuous horde of assailants as wave after wave of ogres and their minions attack without relent.
In order to celebrate this announcement, Maximum Games released a cinematic trailer for Extinction that can be viewed below. Maximum Games will most probably release a gameplay walkthrough at this year’s E3, so stay tuned for more!

Give them a chance. Don’t demoralize them off the bat. We may be surprised in a good way.
no
C’mon man, be cool! lol 😀
After the track record?, I’ll pass.
Yeah and it also made the disastrous AK after being outsourced to them.
It’s easy to dismantle an argument to inane ramblings when you don’t like it.
“You’re basically just arguing for the sake of it.”
You summed up your piece from the start quite nicely. Thanks for wasting the time.
“just complain and state your opinion”
I was sure you thought of that already, even then it’s obvious you don’t respect what you dislike.
Oh, you remembered a past “opinion” which you disagreed with and didn’t like?, what a shocker.
“Egotistical and opinionated”.
Look in the mirror once in awhile. You wasted my time to just argue for the sake of it and then slap on the insults at the end, all because I don’t agree with you, you don’t agree with me and well you’ve got the assertion that I’m flat out wrong, just like I was about Windows 10, so why even bother?.
You want me to be less “dogmatic”, then you best start cutting out the need to insult and label me at the ready half the time. Call my arguments a waste of space, silly or anything else and don’t expect a “thank you sir”, that’s just not how I work.
GAR-bage
IIIIIII…..STAND ALOOONEEEEEEE.
Sorry for some reason this reminded me prince of persia.
Not sure how destructible environments are going to come into play if the playable character is a guy with a sword. Also not sure how that whip / rope he used on the flying orc would work in a real game. Devil May Cry – like maybe? Probably. Again, I don’t see how destruction is going to factor into gameplay in a DMC-like.
Eck-STINK-shun. Nah, it looks pretty good for a cinematic trailer. I hope we can be SuperShrek and kiss buildings with our feet.
See, you’re just proving my point. I’m giving you the facts of you the situation and you wanna cry about your feelings and subjective opinions.
2 days later and you’ve proven me right. Nothing more needs to be added nor go on beyond this point.
Also nice to see you stooping low to insulting another after 2 days of thought.
Also:
“and completely ignoring the fact that the Windows 10 Store is objectively good and in some ways actually better than Steam.”
Oh you are a Windows fanboy after all it seems, because you’re just acting blind if you think the Win 10 store is anywhere better than Steam, and I’m not even a Valve fanboy either lol.
You’ve spend days on your account just wasting it to argue with just me, i’d say that’s pitiful to say the least.
