2009 video game
Fallen Earth is a free-to-play massively multiplayer online role-playing game co-developed by Icarus Studios and Fallen Earth.[1] The game takes place in a post-apocalyptic wasteland located around the American Grand Canyon. Fallen Earth's gameplay features elements of both first-person shooter and role-playing video games, first-person/third person views, hundreds of items, including improvised equipment and weapons, a variety of functional vehicles, a real-time, in-depth crafting system (which includes vehicles), various skills and abilities, factions and tactical PvP, all existing within 1000 square kilometers of usable terrain based on real-world topographical maps of the area. The game was released on September 22, 2009. Two years later, GamersFirst purchased the intellectual property and made the game free to play. It was acquired by the publisher Little Orbit in 2018. Two years following its initial shutdown, Fallen Earth's servers were brought back online on October 28, 2021, as a free to play classic server.
