Martian Survival Game Rokh Unveiled

Nvizzio Creations is a company founded by ex-Funcom employees who worked on Age of Conan and The Secret World, among others. They recently announced their partnership with Darewise Entertainment to create a new title. The title that is coming out of this partnership has been revealed to be a persistent, multiplayer-focused survival game set on Mars. This game is called Rokh.

Powered by Unreal Engine 4, Rokh is "deeply rooted in scientific and authentic anticipation." In the game, "everything proceeds from simulation and systems interaction instead of classic script-based interactions." Players will have to face dust storms, hunger, thirst, "lack of atmosphere," radiation, and more as they spend their time on Mars.

An extensive crafting system will be a core feature of the game. Players will be able to take part in the creation of housing, chemistry, programming, and robotics, among others. In order to "promote real social and economic dynamics," no single player will be able to master all crafts.

A brief look at what the game might look like can be seen in the teaser below. The teaser is very obviously scripted, but the HUD and graphics could potentially resemble those of the final game. The dust storm looks rather terrifying.
