Freefalling onto a PC near you

"I am a leaf on the wind..."
For those of you that want to experience the thrill off base jumping without literally throwing oneself off a building, B.A.S.E. will show you how its done.

More than plummeting to a near death, B.A.S.E. will let gamers use a host of real world equipment as they perform all sorts of acrobatic tricks while in the air. Players will get experience points for the moves that they use, which will in turn open up a plethora of new moves to test out on the journey down.

- BASE-jumping simulator. This game is entirely devoted to the most fascinating of extreme sports - BASE-jumping. Specially developed physics reflect the subtleties of this process: freefall, acrobatics, parachute flight, landing, wind and turbulence. - Acrobatics. Freefall lasts only a dozen seconds, but once you get used to the gameplay you will understand that it's ample time to pull off some mad tricks. - Real geographical locations. A real-life replica is placed in each of the game's jumping sites. The majority of these sites are well-known both among BASE jumpers and to the general public. - Camera effects. Various effects (both animation "slo-mo" and "shaking", as well as graphic "motion blur" and "depth of field") are implemented to reproduce the entire range of sensations of a BASE jump. - BASE Gear. The game allows you to test-jump dozens of real-world types of gear specifically developed for BASE jumping. - Virtues and skills. Each successful jump increases your character's experience. As time goes by, your character can acquire new aerobatic skills.

- Official Website

B.A.S.E. is expected to freefall onto store shelves in the coming months. You can take a peek at the action by watching the gameplay video on the official B.A.S.E. website
