Huxley
Release Date: 2006
Huxley is a massively multiplayer online first-person
shooting game (MMOFPS) developed by the H-Studio
of global online entertainment company, WEBZEN
Inc. Huxley takes place in a post-apocalyptic
world where human beings have mutated and are
divided into two opposing races, Sapiens and Alternative.
At the center of the battle for survival is Lunarites,
a promising new energy source that both sides
seek to obtain. Forced to battle against one another
for the continuance of each race, Sapiens and
Alternatives are willing to do whatever it takes
to wipe out the conflicting race and gain control
of the world and its resources.
In near future, Nuclearites bombard the World.
Destructive earthquakes, massive tidal waves and
dramatic climate changes wreak havoc around the
globe, isolating continents and driving the human
race into chaos. Those who survive the destruction
dream of tranquility, but an eruption among the
human race and the appearance of horrible mutants
drives the world into further disorder. Racism
and oppression cause rebellious uprisings and
war that divide the landscape between two powers:
Sapiens and Alternative, At the heart of the war
emerges a powerful energy source the Lunarites
created by Huxley, a scientist and possible savior.
Both factions seek glory and victory, fighting
mercilessly for the Lunerites and their very existence.
The characters in Huxley are continuously growing,
which is rare in FPS games. Players are able to
enhance their own combat styles by obtaining out-of-this-world
weapons and new skills, which in turn continuously
challenges players to adopt different gameplay
styles as they progress. Everything a character
does in the Huxley world directly affects the
success of not only the individual, but also of
their race and party; from battles to behaviors,
all interactions are linked to the survival of
a character’s entire race. Huxley goes past traditional
death match FPS gameplay by challenging players
to adapt to new forms of combat to protect the
interests of the camp. Servers will be solely
dedicated to accommodate millions of users engaged
in fast paced, large-scale combat. Players will
require strategy and cooperation to achieve victory.
Extensive multiplayer battle modes are available
each with a variety of unique fighting techniques
and special characteristics. Huxley has advanced
A.I. that rivals other online games. Enemies in
Huxley demonstrate remarkable intelligence, which
can be used to a player’s advantage or demise.
Quests in Huxley will take players on paths of
intrigue to uncover conspiracies resulting in
confrontations. Each quest is continually updated
so players feel as though they are enjoying a
new story mode every time they play.
