近日，肉鸽射击游戏《基因变种》（Gene Shift Auto）开发商在Steam宣布，在EA测试五年后，游戏将于11月28日开始免费。
官方还表示，之前在游戏里氪金的玩家，都将变为豪华版。在多人对战模式上线以后，那些花钱买的东西都将继续保留，而且参加过EA测试的玩家还将获得一些独家饰品等奖励。
在这个受到GTA的启发的大逃杀游戏里用枪支与超能力战斗，完成任务并跟条子战斗来获取随机升级的roguelike的能力，每个回合只有5分钟，因此你需要快速思考来创建一个能用来完成最后决战的装配。
The game that was called Geneshift is now known as Gene Shift Auto (opens in new tab). As Nik Nak Studios, which is to say solo developer Ben Johnson, explains, it's changed dramatically enough during development and early access to warrant a new name. When launched as Geneshift, "It didn't have cops, missions, the megamap, skill drafting, vendors or even the BR game mode!" Johnson writes. "We're playing a completely different game, more of a sequel really, and a new name will help communicate to all the old fans just how much has changed." It'll also be free-to-play as of November 28, after previously being priced at $15/£11.40. "This move to F2P will bring far more players into our community", Johnson writes. "We will have fuller servers, more members in the discord, and you can invite your friends to play for free!" We spoke to Johnson in 2017, when he'd just spent two years working on his game while staying in youth hostels overseas. The top-down shooter inspired by his love of Grand Theft Auto 2 and Soldat had a fluid name from the start, beginning as a demo called Subvein before going up for approval on Steam Greenlight under the name Mutant Factions. Along the way it transformed from a singleplayer/co-op game of arcade crime chaos to become a battle royale played in three ultra-quick five-minute rounds, with roguelike progression. Which is quite a shift. The story campaign is still accessible to players who own the deluxe edition DLC (opens in new tab), and that will remain true after the base version goes free-to-play. To access it you need to set up a custom server lobby as the host, and then select "campaign" before clicking on "create game". When Gene Shift Auto becomes free-to-play on November 28 the deluxe edition will still be on sale for the same price, and anyone who owns it already will still have access to everything in it. Gene Shift Auto is available on Steam (opens in new tab).
