You can use awesome gadgets like jetpacks, tech’d out weapons for the future, and more to get the advantage in the game’s savage environment.

In an interview with Dexerto, Blomkamp explains that “the way that we’ll try to construct the gameplay will be battle royale first and narrative will be there in a supporting kind of supplementary way, hopefully, to expand the feeling of the world and let you meet the characters.”

Blomkamp also comments on his filmography, with movies like District 9 in his back catalog. However, he isn’t specifically using them as influences for Off The Grid: “I’m not thinking about those films. I mean, it’s the same in the sense that it’s real-world cyberpunk. So you have like grungy tech that’s placed into our very real-world environments.”
