Core Available on Epic Games Store in Early Access | Game Rant
From Adventure Games Studio and RPG Maker to Roblox and Little Big Planet, do-it-yourself game creation tools allow passionate gamers and aspiring developers to craft unique experiences with little to no programming experience. Manticore Games’ Core hopes to take user-made game content to the next level.
Core launched in Early Access on April 15th and is free-to-play from the Epic Games Store. Manticore also uploaded two new trailers showcasing the vast array of games users can create on the platform.
Manticore Games frequently describes Core as a “creator multiverse.” That concept was on display in the Early Access Trailer, which followed an interdimensional explorer. He travels through an array of player-created worlds, including RPGs, first-person shooters, racers, space sims, and farming simulators. The platform also boasts deck builders, MOBAS, and the creatively bizarre text-based shooter Tumbleweed Typo Hunters.
Core’s open Alpha began in March 2020. The platform already boasts over one million players and 20,000 free games. Its March 4 update also introduced Core World. This is a unique hub area where players can socialize and store their favorite characters and mounts. It also serves as a nexus where players can jump into new and popular games available on the Core platform.
Manticore describes Core as the gaming equivalent of the video-sharing site YouTube. The studio hopes it will revolutionize game creation in the same way YouTube did for video. It utilizes Epic’s unreal engine and includes tools to allow up-and-coming creators to build games with zero programming experience. Epic invested heavily in Core, contributing a reported $15 million to the platform’s development.
Manticore is celebrating Core’s exclusive early access release on the Epic Game Store by offering exclusive heroes and mounts to new and existing players that link their accounts. The company also plans to introduce new features including, but not limited to, persistent player housing and an asset marketplace as active development continues.
Core is available now on PC from the Epic Games Store.
