Scars Above is an upcoming action sci-fi game from Mad Head Games, and its gameplay trailer premiered at the Koch Primetime 2021 stream. The game is being published on the new label, Prime Matter.

You can watch the trailer below:

Though the Koch Primetime stream is dedicated to discussing the new titles coming on the Prime Matter label, Scars Above is one of the few titles to have a significant trailer to showcase. The majority of games have been shared with audiences via in-depth developer interviews, such as with Brass Knuckle’s survival horror, The Chant.

In Scars Above, players control Kate Ward, a scientist who finds herself stranded on a hostile alien world. In addition to fighting all sorts of space-based enemies, the game has you researching the planet and its inhabitants to uncover the truth and, hopefully, find a way home.

Scars Above will be coming to all consoles and PC in 2022.
