Falling Frontier’s latest action-packed trailer shows off new combat gameplay and ships

The highly anticipated space strategy game overhauls combat mechanics, demonstrated by a brutal clash between Mars and Titan’s new ships

May 29, 2023 - Hooded Horse is excited to announce a rework of space RTS game Falling Frontier’s combat mechanics alongside a brand-new design of fan-favorite destroyer, the Hano. These recent developments debut in an explosive new trailer with never-before-seen gameplay.


The new trailer's opening continues the story begun in the Sukula Mining Barge reveal trailer, before switching to all-new gameplay footage as Martian and Titan-pattern Hano destroyers clash around Saturn. Discerning viewers should be able to spot a host of new changes as part of the recent combat rework, including:

  • Faction variants of the new Hano model
  • Improved ship movement mechanics
  • Improved combat model, including missile tracking and countermeasures
  • Improved damage model
  • Tactical slow-motion
  • Free-range orbital camera
  • Updated UI, including for managing point-defense cannons
The Hano’s final form continues the work begun by artist Aleksandre Lortkipanidze, who has recently joined developer Stutter Fox Studios to design new and reworked ship models to enhance Falling Frontier’s visual identity. New frigate models with faction variants are next on his hit list, so keep an eye out for their arrival later this year.

Falling Frontier will release in early access for PC via Steam, GOG, and the Epic Games Store. A press kit is available.
