For its FPS and RTS Disintegration, V1 Interactive is offering a free trial weekend, during which the game will be discounted on all platforms.
Under the new studio V1 Interactive, the hybrid first-person shooter and real-time strategy game Disintegration, the brainchild of Halo co-creator Marcus Lehto, officially launched on June 16. V1 Interactive is offering a free trial of the game this upcoming weekend across all platforms to bolster and try community presence.
Though the blanket period for the free-to-play availability is July 30 to August 2, it will extend until the 9:00 and 10:00 a.m. on August 3 for Steam and PS4 versions of the game respectively. According to the announcement on the Disintegration website, players can buy the game to retain achievements and any items once the period ends. Disintegration is currently 40 percent off on PS4, and that discount will be applied to all platforms by the weekend to encourage players to buy the game further.
V1 Interactive says it is adding back-fill to the matchmaking system to keep online matches as populated as possible and only the Overwatch-styled competitive multiplayer will be accessible in the trial. Though the initial reception to the game has been lukewarm, elements like Disintegration’s soundtrack by Jon Everist should make it worth trying out for anyone still on the fence.
It makes sense for V1 Interactive to jump on the trend as the use of free trial periods has been successful for games like Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. Disintegration is available now on Xbox One, PC, and PS4.
