Annapurna Interactive and developer DINOGOD have released Bounty Star, an over-the-shoulder 3D action game that blends mech combat and customization with farming and base building elements. The game puts you in the role of Clem, a war veteran and expert mech pilot seeking redemption in the Red Expanse, a post-post-apocalyptic American Southwest. Director Ben Ruiz describes the game as the realization of a childhood fantasy about what it would be like to truly live as a mech pilot, experiencing both intense combat and quieter downtime.

Bounty Star is an over-the-shoulder third-person action video game that marries mech combat and customization with light farming and base building. The player takes on the role of a broken but powerful ex-soldier named Clem, a war veteran, talented fighter and expert mech pilot. Clem attempts to shed the guilt and shame of her past and become a legitimate force for good in the Red Expanse, a post-post-apocalyptic version of the American Southwest.
“To say Bounty Star is a passion project for the team at DINOGOD is an understatement. Ever since I became enamoured with mechs as a kid, I wondered what it would be like to live the life as a mech pilot, both the exhilarating thrills of being in the heat of the battle, and the quieter downtime between each conflict” said Ben Ruiz, Founder of DINOGOD and Director of Bounty Star “Bounty Star is the realization of that pilot fantasy. We hope players fall in love with Clem as much we loved writing her and the rich world of the Red Expanse."
Key Features:
Customizable Mech Action: Players pilot the Desert Raptor MKII, a Mech of extraordinary power. It is a highly-customizable battle vehicle that can be equipped with a variety of offensive systems. It can also be equipped with a variety of defensive systems; high-speed thrusters, boosters for dashing, riot shields, among others.
Become a Bounty Hunter: The Red Expanse is a rich farming and mercantile region plagued by violent criminals and dangerous beasts. The government that remains outsources justice to experts like Clem—bounty hunters who are free to pursue their targets into whatever dangerous corners of the world they hide.
Build Your Homestead: Clem comes into an isolated and run-down garage that serves as a suitable base of operations and home. Build out water and power supply lines, grow and cook food, produce ammunition and fuel for combat, and raise animals. This decrepit ruin has a lot of potential, but it will have to grow alongside Clem.
The game retails for $24.99, with a 10% launch discount.
