AMSTERDAM, THE NETHERLANDS – June 20, 2024 – StickyLock Games has today launched free-to-play multiplayer first-person shooter Histera into Steam Early Access. Set in the far future within the walls of a new immersive entertainment experience, Histera lets two teams of 8 players battle to the death in thrilling combat arenas which can morph in real-time throughout a match, augmenting the battlefield with weapons and terrain from distinct eras in time including a prehistoric plateau, a war-torn 20th century city, and a futuristic metropolis.

Check out the brand-new Early Access launch trailer


In Histera, squad up and face off in two distinct deathmatch and territory control modes to score points or kills with an arsenal of unique weapons – including prehistoric spears, WII-era anti-tank sniper rifles and futuristic assault weapons. But watch out for the Glitch, a game-changing event that can significantly re-shape the battlefield as each match progresses.

To emerge victorious, Histera combatants will need to utilize every element at their disposal in the arena including collecting items to replenish their health, armor and ammunition; discovering special ‘Glitch Pickups’ that can offer unique abilities such as increased movement speed or unlimited ammunition.

At Early Access launch, Histera players can do battle in arenas augmented with features from three distinct eras in time. StickyLock has also revealed that two new Eras ‘Peak of the Five Winds’ and ‘Port Libertad’ will be added to the game later in the year, as well as additional characters and weapons.

Histera Key Features
The Glitch: Adjust your strategy to take advantage of the chaos caused by the Glitch. Master different terrains in the past, present and future, and push yourself to the limit as you rush to adapt and gain (or keep!) the advantage each time the Glitch occurs. The team that can best revamp their strategy to work within Histera’s unpredictable, time-distorting mosh pit will claim victory!
High replayability: With the Glitch mechanic transforming the map in the midst of the action, no two rounds of Histera will play out the same.
Mix it up: Battle through prehistoric caves, a WWII city under siege and the neon bathed streets of a dystopian metropolis wielding anything from spears to machine guns as time periods collide.
Choose your weapon: Use a wide variety of weapons to withstand the chaos wrought by the Glitch — will you stay in the shadows with a prehistoric hunting bow, or get up close with The Matchstick, a futuristic shotgun that can be loaded with incendiary rounds?
Versatile First-Person gameplay: Perfect for easygoing fans of the shooter genre looking for something different as well as hardcore gamers seeking their latest challenge.
