Today’s ID@Xbox Showcase revealed that a new FPS title is coming to Xbox later this year. Developer TwistedRed announced its free-to-play multiplayer title, ExoMecha, over a year ago. In today’s showcase, the studio released a new gameplay trailer. The trailer promises high-octane action and an immersive experience with team style gameplay.

ExoMecha is set in OMECHA, an explored and exotic world. The gameplay trailer showcases the environment vividly. We believe some landscapes shown in the trailer will eventually become the first maps in the game. There were also instances of water based regions, and one map has lava flowing on the ground. Mechs and other alien technology adorn the lands. We even see boss battles, which look very similar to Autobots from the popular franchise, Transformers.
