You may or may not remember a team-based shooter called Raiders of the Broken Planet. It launched on PlayStation 4 all the way back in September of last year, and to be totally honest, we didn't even realise.

But we're going to assume that we haven't missed much, as the game's actually relaunched under a new name. It's now called Spacelords and it's free-to-play, but it's still a shooter with specialised characters, weapons, levelling mechanics, and unlockable upgrades. The crux of the game is still cooperative play, but other players can join up with the enemy and attempt to sabotage your mission. You can download it starting today on PS4.

According to developer MercurySteam, just about everything has been overhauled, including the progression system. On returning players, the press release reads "Raiders of the Broken Planet veterans will keep all the progress and ingame currency they have unlocked so far, and players who have invested in one or more campaigns will be compensated with one exclusive Elite Skin for each campaign they have purchased."

Will you be giving Spacelords a go? Question the trailer's choice of music in the comments section below.
