Join the Exoborne Playtest this February

Get ready to battle the elements in this adrenaline-fueled tactical extraction shooter

Ready for a high-stakes adventure where nature itself is your greatest enemy? Exoborne, the new tactical extraction shooter from Sharkmob, is opening its doors for an exclusive playtest next month.

From February 12 – 17, players on PC can log into Steam and test their mettle in Colton County—a place where humans are not just battling each other but also the relentless forces of nature.

In Exoborne, you’ll step into the shoes of the Reborn—special survivors equipped with powerful Exo-Rigs. These customizable suits allow you to tailor your loadout, adopt different strategies, and survive not just enemy players and factions, but also the devastating environmental threats that ravage the land. The stakes are intense, and the rewards await those brave enough to face them.

When and where to play

  • Dates: February 12–17, 2025
  • Availability: Steam (PC)
  • Start/End Times: 1 PM GMT / 2 PM CET / 5 AM PST

Interested? Head to Exoborne’s Steam page to sign up for a chance to participate in the playtest.

Watch the new trailer

Get a sneak peek at the action with the latest Exoborne trailer. In it, Tar, the enigmatic leader of the Reborn, calls upon players to join the fight against Rebirth—the group responsible for humanity’s fragile state.

“We’ve been conducting closed tests both online and in our studio for quite some time,” says Brynley Gibson, Sharkmob executive producer.

“But this marks our first large-scale test, and it’s an incredibly exciting milestone for us. By entering this stage of open collaboration with the community, we’re eager to gather invaluable insights and feedback that will drive us to elevate the game to new heights.”

A world broken but fighting back

Exoborne throws players into the thick of a world devastated by extreme weather and hostile forces. The Reborn were once loyal followers of Project Rebirth but have since turned rebel after uncovering painful truths. In a world where survival means battling nature, enemy factions, and each other, trust is a rare commodity.

As you explore Colton County, you’ll face dynamic environmental challenges like deadly storms and shifting terrain. Your greatest threats, however, might just come from other players vying for resources in this harsh and competitive world.

Exo-Rigs: Your ultimate survival tool

The heart of Exoborne lies in its customizable Exo-Rigs. These advanced suits aren’t just fancy armor—they’re your key to survival. Customize your loadout to match your playstyle, whether you prefer stealth, aggressive combat, or something in between.

Players will use their Exo-Rigs to:

  • Weather deadly storms
  • Navigate vertical terrain
  • Harness environmental forces
  • Gain tactical advantages in combat

What to expect in Exoborne

  • Dynamic weather systems that transform every battle
  • Vertical exploration in a world turned upside down
  • High-stakes extraction gameplay where every decision matters
  • PvPvE combat against players, AI factions, and nature itself
  • Resource management and strategic loadout customization
  • Evolving narrative that unfolds through gameplay
