We’ve got a new Starbase feature video! This one focuses on the various handheld weapons and the gunfighting in Starbase, which has its own special quirks related to zero-gravity movement and the fully destructible environment. As spaceships are also a huge part of Starbase, you can seamlessly transition from a spaceship fight to a gunfight. You can fight on ships while the ships are moving, jump off from one ship to another or board the enemy’s ship and seize control! Sounds like a lot of fun?
