The Protagonist: EX-1 Early Access Date Revealed

The Protagonist: EX-1, a tactical RPG by 3Mind Games, will arrive on PC via Steam Early Access next week. Published by All in! Games, the Steam Early Access version will launch on February 18, 2021. It is a story-rich blending of sci-fi and turn-based tactics that accurately portrays fighting styles, especially the Maori martial art called Mau rākau.

In The Protagonist: EX-1 players take on the role of Angel, a highly trained special agent with advanced martial arts skills, on a mission to infiltrate an alien space station. After the mission goes wrong, Angel awakens in the infirmary with no memory of what happened and must traverse the alien ship, fighting waves of aliens with teammates Radical and Buddy, and rescue the rest of her team.

The Early Access version will release with four levels in which players can explore the alien space station, with regular updates planned to add new levels, enemies, and more. While exploring the station, players can also acclimate themselves to the martial arts combat system which is based on real martial arts techniques.
