During today’s Opening Night Live ceremony, Level Infinite and Behaviour Interactive revealed Exterminauts, a brand new third-person co-op PvE shooter coming to PC and consoles. Exterminauts puts players in the steel-toed boots of blue-collar galactic field technicians tackling dangerous alien infestations across hostile off-world worksites. Published by Level Infinite in partnership with TEAM SHOOTER & CREATIVE, a global game publishing team, the title is set to launch in 2027 for PlayStation 5, XBOX Series X|S, and PC.

Set on the scarred alien world of Tian, Exterminauts invites players to become an Exterminaut: a hardened interstellar professional uniquely equipped to exterminate threats, repair critical infrastructure, and respond to crises wherever the job takes them. Players will venture into hostile industrial environments on an alien planet where nature, machinery, and alien life collide, using specialized power tools and teamwork to overcome unpredictable threats in a colorful sci-fi world filled with danger, chaos, and unexpected challenges.

“This is Behaviour’s most ambitious original IP, and it exists at this scale thanks to our partnership with Level Infinite and TEAM SHOOTER & CREATIVE.” said Louis-Pierre Pharand, VP & Executive Producer at Behaviour Interactive. “Our team wanted to make a game about sci-fi blue-collar workers who get the job done even when things go wrong on a galactic scale. TEAM SHOOTER & CREATIVE understood the idea from day one and has backed it ever since. After years in development, we’re proud to finally show Exterminauts to players. Punch In, Clean Up, Get Paid!”

“We’re incredibly excited to partner with Behaviour Interactive on Exterminauts.” said Hakan Hu, Publishing Lead at TEAM SHOOTER & CREATIVE. “The team has brought tremendous creativity and ambition to this original IP, building a distinctive blue-collar sci-fi world around chaotic and highly cooperative gameplay. We’re excited to finally introduce Exterminauts to players and look forward to sharing much more in the months ahead.”

In Exterminauts, players will deploy from their orbiting depot into hazardous worksites, complete high-pressure objectives (and some odd jobs if they have time), and extract before alien encounters spiral out of control. Each successful work order provides resources to improve equipment, upgrade tools, and prepare for increasingly challenging deployments against a diverse range of extraterrestrial threats. With every contract bringing new obstacles and opportunities, players must adapt, collaborate, and push their skills to survive the next dirty job assigned to them.

Key Features of Exterminauts:

• Blue-Collar Crew – Step into the role of an Exterminaut, a blue-collar galactic pest controller who combines the skills of an exterminator, repairman, and first responder. Players will take on dangerous missions across hostile worksites where teamwork, improvisation and grit are essential to getting the job done.

• Weaponized Power Tools – Experience a differentiated combat system centered around special firearms inspired by blue-collar tools, including the Ice Gun, Electric Gun, Anti-Gravity Gun and Foam Gun. Players can also use flexible combat actions such as sliding, shooting while sliding, zipline traversal, and rolling, while unleashing powerful Overclock abilities.

• Hostile Alien Ecosystem – Explore a colorful alien sci-fi world where nature, machinery and monsters collide. Players will encounter diverse alien creatures with unique abilities, mechanics, and weaknesses across environments that blend extraterrestrial elements, including plants, mushrooms, and celestial surroundings, with industrial landscapes and architecture.
