Game Rant speaks to Moonshot Games about the upcoming sci-fi multiplayer shooter Wildgate and its quirky cast of Prospectors.

Epic Games Store has revealed its final January mystery games, confirming Wildgate and Total War: Three Kingdoms as the last free titles of the holiday giveaway.

VGChartz's Lee Mehr: "More so than just being an answer to a unique multiplayer mode now lost in time, Wildgate genuinely earns a spot amongst today's best extraction games. By fusing the multi-layered combat dynamics from the likes of Sea of Thieves with sci-fi, it's created some of the most intense & protracted multiplayer bouts in recent memory. But beyond the flash and thrills, what Moonshot Games best accomplishes is a level of measured control few developers manage – least of all the first time through. That may not discount some specific misgivings altogether, but it's nevertheless among the most exhilarating games this year has to offer."

New Game Network writes: "Wildgate delivers polished ship combat and a unique PvPvE structure, but its small content pool and inconsistent matchmaking hold it back from its full potential."
