About

Dark Void™ is a sci-fi action-adventure game that combines an adrenaline-fueled blend of aerial and ground-pounding combat. Set in a parallel universe called "The Void", players take on the role of Will, a pilot dropped into incredible circumstances within the mysterious Void. This unlikely hero soon finds himself swept into a desperate struggle for survival, joining forces with a rebel human group called The Survivors. Trapped in the Void, these resistance fighters are battling to hold off a mysterious alien race that plans to threaten Earth.
Dark Void’s unique combination of jet pack-booster aerial dog fighting and third-person combat brings a thrilling new gameplay dynamic to the third-person shooter experience. Taking 3D action to a whole new level, Dark Void’s unique vertical combat system allows players to dangle from thousand foot drops as they take cover and hurl enemies to their doom, bringing a whole new sense of tension and thrill to the player. Will is also equipped with a powerful rocket pack which allows for fierce in-air combat, hurtling through the Void at blistering speeds while shooting down anything that gets in his path.
Sci-Fi action/adventure combines aerial and on-foot combat for a totally unique third-person shooter experience
Will’s jetpack delivers total freedom of movement allowing players to race against UFOs in high-speed chases and rain death from above onto unsuspecting otherworldly foes
Speed and scale unmatched by any other action title: send Will zipping through tight corridors and then out into immense canyons and futuristic geoscapes
Gravity-defying vertical combat system, where moving up is the only way to bring your enemies down
Seemless transition between jetpack flight, ship-to-ship dog fighting and third-person shoot-em-up action all exists within the same level - not broken up into different "areas"
Huge bosses that require fast reflexes and aerial barnstorming maneuvers to defeat

    EDIT: After about 1.5 months Capcom FINALLY ACTIVATED MY KEY IN SECUROM. Game itself is still nice. But this whole DRM Securom♥♥♥♥♥♥is just gruesome Steam keys dont work! DONT BUY THIS GAME! CAPCOM DOESNT GIVE A♥♥♥♥♥♥ABOUT YOU! The game will ask you to enter your key into the SecuROM prompt but the activation always fails. I wrote more than 10 mails to capcom support and always got told to send the key. Did it multiple times - never recieved an answer again. Capcom support is total garbage

    Rocked through on: 02.07.2015 An Alien Race that helped the Nazis to Power so that the World war is triggered to conquer the Earth behind? Sounds stupid as does cool ... B Movie like and reminiscent of wolfenstein. With a Jet Pack Aller Rocketeer we Fly against the enemy or fight him on the Ground. Unfortunately, a lot of Potential was given away at all Corners and Ends and so unfortunately the whole great Idea became just a medium-sumptuous Game. What's more, it's negative that I couldn't start the Game as if it didn't want to accept the Key. After Complaining to Capcom.com, it was possible at some point. Such a behavior cannot be done at all. Although I bought it for 1 Euro in sale, it is a Cheekiness in principle. 5/10 from me. It is not what you must have played, but it also had its good Moments.

    Dark Void offers an enjoyable combination of cover fights on the ground and aerial combat. The latter is usually done with a jetpack, but you can actually hijack enemy aircraft and pilot them, which I personally love doing. The weapons are ok, although the selection is not very big. The "human" weapons can be pretty much ignored. The standard machine gun has a large ammo capacity, but it isn't very strong or accurate, and except for rare ammo cases or upgrade lockers, you do not find any ammo for it. Same goes for the other two weapons. The alien weapons have less ammo capacity, but they're stronger. And considering that every enemy drops its weapon, you'll obviously go for them. So there are basically only three weapons you're really gonna use. Also, the fire and zoom buttons tend to stuck, forcing you to press zoom again to exit zoom mode, and press fire twice to actually fire. Restarting the game is the only option to fix that. You will need to start over from your last auto save, but don't worry, they're plenty. I didn't even really miss the lack of a quicksave button. Note also to not reassign the TAB-key. It will display mission objectives. That function can not be assigned, reassigning the TAB-key will remove this function. DO NOT READ ANY FURTHER IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO BE SPOILERED The story reminds me a lot of Stargate, the ending, however, seems to be directly inspired by the Matrix movies. It is also rather sudden, almost as if the developers ran out of money, time or ideas. It isn't a very imaginative ending as well, in fact, it's one of the most "classical" endings you can imagine, which is a bit disappointing. Ah well.
