Sweden’s indie studio Chamo Games has developed a new game Vector Strike which is on its way to PC. The game is built on predictable real world physics, powered by sophisticated rollback systems like the ones in fighting games. It aims to deliver a fast-paced 4v4 FPS sports action experience.
Chamo Games was created by a collective of developers who brought game titles like Valorant, Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2, The Division, League of Legends, Hitman, Avatar, Cyberpunk 2077. Vector Strike will offer a genre-blend first person sports action.
Chamo Games CEO Zoher Toutanji said, “Vector Strike is designed to celebrate strategic spatial thinking and skillful play in competitive gaming. We’re building a game that’s fun for everyone to play and watch, with the goal of becoming a leading competitive digital sport, even one day being part of the Olympics. Competitive games are popular with young people, and we think Vector Strike‘s blend of accessible gameplay and high skill cap will resonate with this audience. I’m looking forward to welcoming players already at Steam Next Fest.”
The studio’s chief creative officer Roberto Schiavulli shared, “Vector Strike is a new type of FPS. I had the privilege of working on both Call of Duty and Valorant, and we are very proud to create a game that is not about killing or body count, but rather a true test of skill that speaks directly to competitive players. Our world class rollback netcode gives you a supersmooth experience during multiplayer matches while our custom physics engine is highly predictable so you can learn, train and constantly get better. This game is designed to incentivise emerging gameplay. We are not here to tell you how to play, you decide the meta, and I can assure you that every match will be a different experience.”
The studios executive producer Stephanie Pecaoco commented, “We came together as a development team with one goal – to create something special for our players and to build it with them. It is exciting to deliver Vector Strike, a game where the players’ voice matters and their experience keeps getting better. Our top priority in live support is to focus our time and energy on delivering regular updates and adding meaningful player features that would make the game more fun and memorable for everyone. We’re dedicated to ensuring our community feels heard, respected, and valued. So join us in Steam’s Next Fest and let’s play!”
