Transmission is set to have a number of key features, including:
- Hand Painted Art Style – Everything is hand illustrated with a stylized and unique look. It is painterly and expressive, yet still contains loads of specific details.
- Exploration – A distinctive and vast game world for you to explore. The world is dark, mysterious and dangerous. You will need to use your wits and have a strong will in order to push forward and uncover the hidden secrets it holds. If you are fortunate in finding these secrets, you will be rewarded with large areas to explore with deep story content and hours of entertaining game play.
- Tactical Combat – Enemies are brutal and engaging. Combat is fast paced, but always needs to be approached with caution. Simply running into a fight will guarantee you perish swiftly. You must block, dodge, parry and be ready to strike when the opportunity is right.
