Meet Your Maker’s Sector 2: Shattered Peak Takes Players to the Frigid Arctic Wasteland

This is the brutal reality of Meet Your Maker Expands even further with the addition of Sector 2 : Shattered Peak.

The world of Meet Your Maker was ravaged by the corrugenic disease. Not even the planet’s most remote regions managed to escape its devastation.

The latest addition to the game lets you raid and build deadly fortresses, all in an environment unlike anything else in the world. It also includes new cosmetics and tools inspired by events at the Shattered Peak Sanctuary.

Bundle up, there’s a mean chill in the air.

Shattered Mountain

As Sector 1 took players along the New England Coastline in the rain, the Arctic wasteland will transport you to a bleak, desolate place surrounded by endless wind and suffocating storms.

Shattered Peak Sanctuary is a former laboratory that was abandoned after a series of tragic events.

“The Shattered Peak Sanctuary shows us that even the most remote Sanctuaries weren’t safe from danger,”says Joe Dermo, Meet Your Maker’sNarrative designer. “The projects were high-risk gambits and so many elements could lead to chaos – and often did. This time we explore what happens when paranoia overtakes a small, secluded area.”

“We wanted to explore a sparsely populated area of Earth and consider how the Sanctuary project and impending extinction-level event may have affected them. The Arctic was the perfect fit and offered us the opportunity to design a harsh, inhospitable environment that we haven’t seen before.”

The Stuff of Nightmares: Shattered Peak’s Deadly Creations

This chapter is heavily influenced by paranoia. Shattered Peak’s survival was based on the cutting edge technology it used to cope with the harsh conditions of the Arctic Wastes. This is in many ways what caused its demise.

“It’s the classic theme of mankind thinking they can ‘science’ their way out of a problem and ending up creating something terrible,” adds Ash Pannell, Meet Your Maker’sCreative Director

Both the lore of these new characters and their gameplay reflect this theme.

The Overseer

The Overseer suit is a Custodian prototype that was built in Shattered Peak. After succumbing to paranoid hallucinations, an Advisor clone captured the suit, using its powerful and unique abilities to wage war within the Sanctuary’s walls.

“There are some surprising Biolinks that offer abilities unlike anything we’ve seen before,” says Dermo. “I’m excited to see how players use the Overseer’s gliding ability as it has the opportunity to complement both offensive or defensive strategies.”

“My favorite is the Pathfinder perk,” Pannell adds. “It reveals the location of the Harvester Path and is a real counter to crazy, time-consuming mazes.”

The Assassin

Play a game such as Meet Your MakerWhere deadly traps are around every turn, a guard as experienced as an Assassin is able to produce some truly intense moments.

“The Assassin was based on a psychologically damaged Advisor’s hallucinations, so it has a grim look that sets it apart from other guards,” explains Dermo.

This guard uses stealth instead of other methods to surprise Raiders. With its holocube technology it’s nearly invisible until it unleashes its devastating lunge attack.

“The Assassin is great”, adds Pannell “It brings new gameplay for both Builders and Raiders. They’re jump scare masters and that just ratchets up the tension in the levels that have them.”

The Expanding Universe

Now that Dreadshore has been joined by Shattered peak, Meet Your Maker’sSince the Red Sands’ early days, the visual identity of the game has changed dramatically. Each new region builds out the game’s world, adding new tools for Builders and Raiders to experiment with while also fleshing out the larger narrative.

Since our game revolves around user-generated content, designing a new location with new tools is a big, fun undertaking, and we’re glad to say that player feedback lies at the center of it.

“It’s really about what we think players will have fun with. We start by looking at gaps in both the building and raiding gameplay and finding things that work well in shaking things up,” says Pannell. “So, when speed runners just start blasting through levels, we look at new Custodians that could support that and for the Builders we try and deliver traps, guards and augments to counter it. When we’ve got something working, we then apply the ‘fantasy’ to it.”

In terms of adding to the game’s story, Dermo adds, “Although we’re dealing with science fiction, I find it’s important to base the genre in real human emotions. When creating lore, I consider how real people would react to the intense situations they’ve been put in and what event could be sparked by one thing going wrong. Humans are fascinating creatures who have a tendency of taking a bad situation and finding unique ways of making it worse.”

We can’t wait to see all the new Outposts players will craft with these new additions to the game. Shattered Peak, Sector 2, is now available for purchase. Meet Your Maker.
