The world got its first look at V1 Interactive’s sci-fi first-person shooter and real-time strategy game hybridDisintegrationwith atrailer debut at Gamescom 2019. Since then the developers have let players take part in closed beta tests, but there was no word on an official release date. That is, until a story trailer for the game was posted to Twitter today letting fans know they can officially pre-orderDisintegrationfor its July 16, 2025 release.
Based ongameplay seen inDisintegration’s closed betait seems the game will approach its genre fusion in an interesting way, with players controlling crews from the top of flying motorbikes called Gravcycles that have their own tools of war. It will only be available through digital on Sony’s PlayStation 4, Microsoft’s Xbox One X, and on PC through Steam.

The new title, spearheaded byHaloco-creator Marcus Lehto, is set in a world where human brains have been removed and “integrated” into robot bodies to prevent extinction according to the game’s website.Disintegrationfollows an Integrated rebel named Romer Shoal who leads a team hoping to prevent human eradication by the hands of an integrated government who believes they are the next evolution of the species.
After Lehto — a former Bungie creative director —announcedDisintegrationlast July, comparisons were already being made to Bungie’s well-known series likeHaloandDestiny. WhileDisintegrationhas some similarities in terms of its sci-fi FPS concept and its focus on providing both a single-player campaign and PvP multiplayer, it takes on plenty of its own elements to stand out.
That said, even ifDisintegrationmade an interesting impression out the gate, its closed beta showed some room for improvement. Thecrews system in particular needed balancingbased on the multiplayer aspects players had access to at the time.
Now that interested fans have gotten a better look at the game’s story, it should be interesting to see whether the game has improved sinceplayers last got to tryDisintegration. Pre-orders are available now for $49.99, and will come complete with in-game content like a special Midnight skin for the Lost Ronin crew, an animated banner, a flex emote, and a customizable Gravcycle medal.
