From the project page:
Shadowrun Online – is an online PC, Mac, iOS and Android Tablet based game, with deep, rich story, single player, co-op, and player vs. player action, plus large in-game community hubs, all set in the unique and persistent world of Shadowrun. Welcome to the shadows, chummer.
Shadowrun Online is the second Kickstarter video game project set in the unique world of Shadowrun. The first project, Shadowrun Returns, focused primarily on providing a great single player adventure experience, while Shadowrun Online – like the pen & paper version – is all about experiencing the awesome world and gritty atmosphere of Shadowrun together with friends. Fluid co-op gameplay and intense player vs player faction wars set in a persistent and evolving world – this is what Shadowrun Online is about!
And the best part is: In Shadowrun Online the collective actions of players will not only determine the fate of the online game world, but our unique player-driven plotline will enable you to determine the future of the whole Shadowrun Universe! Events players trigger will also cross over into the pen and paper storyline – so you can shape the future of the Shadowrun Universe!
At its core SRO is a full Unity3D online game, accessible Online through Windows, Mac, Android, iOS- and Linux if Unity enables us to do it in the future, with high quality graphics and great effects. Highly individualizable characters and a turn based system, which balances fast-paced action with deep tactical combat, make it a true Shadowrun experience.
Shadowrun Online offers two playing models: The Campaign Model a.k.a Guild Wars model: You buy the game (client) once (or pledge $25 here on Kickstarter), and play for as long as you want without buying any premium stuff giving you an advantage in the game just as with a classic boxed game. You can then acquire new campaigns and cities as expansions to be regularly released. See this update for more information on this!
And then there’s the free-to-play model, in which the game can be played for free (no monthly payments, no inital payment), with items in the shop for real money. For this model there are Premium subscriptions, that allow you to save time grinding by giving a boost to how quickly you accumulate Karma, Reputation and Nuyen.
