Sega has announced HYENAS, a first-person shooter game, for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, PC, Xbox One and Xbox Series. The game is in development at Creative Assembly, the developers behind the Total War series and Alien: Isolation. HYENAS will release in 2023.

HYENAS will feature players-versus-player-versus-enemy combat in which 15 players, split into 3 teams of 5, are tasked with stealing various treasures. All of the maps in the game are set in ships that have zero-gravity sections, the game’s treasures will also be pop-culture related.

Details via Sega:

Earth is gone, the rich have colonized Mars and the rest of humanity is living their worst life in The Taint, a giant orbiting slum. While humanity is trying to survive, the Mars billionaires are more worried about fulfilling their nostalgic dreams. Plunderships, massive retail spacecrafts dedicated to selling salvaged pop-culture artefacts from Earth, our artefacts, at space-high prices to satisfy their desires.

We, an unlikely pack of talented robbers, hit the Mars elite where it hurts most: their stuff A.K.A. OUR stuff. They call us “HYENAS.”

We get in, empty some clips into their security clones and other “preventative measures”, steal all the best stuff then get out. Exploding a clone in zero gravity is kind of messy, but as long as we make it out with the merch it’s worth it.

So, you in?
