Frontier Foundry Announces Lemnis Gate

Frontier Foundry, the new external publishing division at Frontier Developments, revealed its second title at Gamescom’s Opening Night Live today — Lemnis Gate.

Lemnis Gate is a brain bending, turn-based, strategy shooter tasking players with defeating opponents in 1v1 and 2v2 arena matches. Players have 25 seconds to execute an action, be it blasting an enemy, manoeuvring an operative, or setting up their next move. After all players have taken turns, the next 25-second round begins.

There are five rounds in total, giving rise to a near endless variety of creative plays. Set up ambushes, fix past mistakes, and develop unbeatable game plans to out think and outwit adversaries. By using non-linear logic, abstract thinking, and outlandish maneuvers, no two battles are ever the same. Past, present, and future collide.

Lemnis Gate will arrive on PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4 in early 2021.
