About the Game



Fight overwhelming odds to escape a secret TranStar moon base where the enemies you encounter, the hazards you face, the goals you complete, and the loot you collect are different each time you play. With changing environments as dangerous as they are dynamic, the Mooncrash campaign for Prey will offer a fun, infinitely replayable challenge to test even the most skilled players.

Story:


In Prey: Mooncrash, TranStar’s secret moon base stopped transmitting shortly after the events of Prey. Now Peter, a hacker stationed aboard a spy satellite tasked with intercepting TranStar communications, must find out why. Trapped and under a ruthless contract with KASMA Corp, Peter’s only hope of ever seeing his family again is uncovering the moon base’s lost secrets.

Features:



Live. Die. Adapt. Escape!
Escape TranStar’s moon base before the Typhon threat takes over. A simple goal, but one with hundreds of viable solutions. In Mooncrash, players will experience an all-new, infinitely replayable, ‘rogue-lite’ campaign with ever-changing enemies, weapons and objectives against a constantly increasing alien threat.


Survive How You Want with Who You Want
Unlock multiple characters as you play, each with their own set of specialized, upgradable skills. Will you forge your path with the resourceful engineer Joan, trade that wrench in for Security Officer Bhatia and his shotgun, or will you choose the frail-but-gifted Andrius and his arsenal of psychic abilities? Prey is about choices, and those choices belong to you.


Search for Secrets, Loot…and a Way Off
Arkane Studios’ talent for detail and story-rich environments comes alive in Mooncrash. As you explore the station, which is the same size and scope of four levels of the original game’s Talos I station, don’t forget to keep your eyes peeled for precious supplies – and, of course, Mimics.


New Challenges, New Solutions
The Typhon threat has returned with familiar foes and tough new enemies, each armed with a unique set of deadly characteristics. Use the full power of the arsenal at your disposal, including popular weapons and abilities from Prey’s main game, to fight for your life and make a mad dash for your escape.


Prey: Typhon Hunter
Mooncrash includes Prey: Typhon Hunter, an online multiplayer update. Typhon Hunter is a lethal game of hide-and-seek between a single survivor (Morgan Yu) and five other players who stalk, hunt, and hide in plain sight as shape-shifting Mimic aliens. Every object is a potential enemy. Will Morgan or the Mimics prevail?

TranStar VR is a single player VR-only campaign included in the Typhon Hunter update. This campaign puts you in the shoes of various TranStar employees as you complete objectives and solve intricate puzzles on Talos I, just days before the events of Prey.

Requires the Prey full game.

Call it a DLC or whatever - but this is a whole ass game on top of Prey. You can say people slept on Prey, but they slept even harder on Mooncrash. It's amazing how well crafted and implemented this gameplay format is

Came back to play the Mooncrash DLC a few years after finishing Prey's main campaign and I had an absolute blast! For the unaware, Mooncrash is not a simple bonus story, but it introduces a radical gameplay change - the

Exploring the new level was fun the first two or three lives but you have to really like roguelike runs looping over and over again to like this DLC. Got old after a few hours to me.

I really don't understand why this DLC doesn't get better reviews, as it is certainly one of the most innovative and smart game extensions I have ever played. For me, Prey (the main game) is already a hidden gem that

Disclaimer: I am a challenging video game enjoyer. I prefer hands-off type games with minimal direction and difficult gameplay. I say that because I have never been as engaged by an Arkane game as I have by Mooncrash.

Take Prey's emergent gameplay, and meld it with a time-loop styled game with involving 5 characters who progress in the form of persistent neuromod upgrades and meta currency, and you have Mooncrash. Yes, it starts out
