Backer Build Four for Phoenix Point introduces the Phoenix Point soldiers, new enemies, destruction physics and more.

Backer Build Four

We have some exciting new content included with Backer Build Four. Here, we're going to give you the rundown on some of the main new features and additions in the latest build.

Phoenix Project soldiers

Since our first Backer Build in early 2018, players have taken control of the New Jericho forces. This was mainly because the New Jericho models were the first we started working on.

Finally, in Backer Build Four, Phoenix Point soldiers are now yours to control.

Phoenix Project Vehicle - The "Scarab"

Alongside the New Jericho soldiers of previous builds, players were able to gain and control the Armadillo, the NJ armoured vehicle.

In Backer Build Four you will be able to find and utilize the Scarab - the Phoenix Project vehicle, complete with rocket launcher.

New Weapons

To accompany the Phoenix Project soldiers, BB4 sees a variety of new weapons. These are the Phoenix Project equivalent sniper and assault rifles, along with the Heavy Cannon.

There are also New Jericho flamethrower and incendiary grenades.

For this surprisingly enjoyable game I'll need my own backer build, in form of an entirely new PC hardware.

Is it just me or does the textures look pretty muddy?

Yeah, they do. I think it might be to do with the fact that most of the game is in top down mode - they might have to keep the texture size down so big scenes don't become too heavy. I've noticed the effect in a number of topdown games that zoom in to closer perspectives at times.

Backers are pissed but they promised backers they will get both epic key and steam or gog key a year later.
Yes. We can happily play beta builds, then pause for a year.
