Active Matter has launched and is gathering positive reviews
The online action game Active Matter, released under the auspices of Gaijin, has received positive reviews from Steam store users. In this game, operatives fight each other and monsters inhabiting an anomalous universe. There is also clan competition and several modes, including extraction raids. Despite such a successful start, the developers from Matter Team are not resting on their laurels and are already releasing updates — a fresh patch has upgraded the project to version 0.4.0.122.
What makes Active Matter interesting at launch?

The shooter takes place in an otherworldly realm that differs from the ordinary one in its quantum instability. Gravitational and other anomalies appear all over the map, and heroes must fight in such unusual conditions. Moreover, there is a choice — whether to act on a location with monsters or without them. Creatures from the anomalous world can prevent operatives from extracting loot in the PvPvE mode, built on the model of extraction shooters. On the other hand, there are also pure PvP matches. Raids can be played solo or in a squad, and after a battle, each gamer has the opportunity to expand their syndicate's base to receive better equipment.
In the first improvements after the release, the developers fixed some animations and also made changes to the interface and sound. In addition, they introduced an experiment — a hero appearance editor. A new enemy from the Distorted awaits operatives in battle — it is tougher than its kin and can call for reinforcements with a scream. Dynamic extraction points have been added to the Dogorsk raids, and bees no longer sting inside the church in Ozyorny. Finally, the inventory restocking mechanic has been reworked. In particular, the «Add items» («+») button becomes inactive if all slots are already filled.
