In The Black

Nuclear-Powered Multiplayer Space Combat

In The Black ® is an intense single- and online multiplayer space combat simulator that is laser focused on the combat pilot experience. Elevating the visceral excitement of a cockpit shooter with a serious respect for science makes it one of the few games to earn the Atomic Rockets Seal of Approval.

Set in our own solar system 200 years in the future, players are private military contractors (mercenaries) hired by ruthless megacorporations to fight their shadow wars for control of the system’s resources. There is a rich mix of combat scenarios, 5v5 team-based multiplayer, and deep customization options.

The Impeller Studios team is led by industry veterans Jack Mamais (MechWarrior 2: Mercenaries, Far Cry, and Crysis) and David Wessman (the X-Wing / TIE Fighter series, Blood Wake, The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay, and Saints Row). We are hardcore gamers ourselves and we believe the best games are skill-based and intrinsically rewarding. And we really like the idea of flying nuclear-powered rockets through the rings of Saturn to engage in explosive high tech mayhem using lasers, missiles, and railguns!

We invite you to try out our free public demo, and if you enjoy it, please add In The Black to your wishlist!
