About ATHENA

ATHENA is a ruthless, immersive first person tactical shooter set during the final days of a broken America, fractured by civil unrest, rotting institutions, and a rogue AI superweapon originally built to protect humanity that is now erasing it. You play as callum adler, a battleworn Marine operative caught in a brutal civil war, uncovering government conspiracies, covert operations, and the fallout of the ATHENA AI superweapon.

The game features:

  • A deep, choice driven narrative where every decision impacts the world and characters
  • Brutal, realistic combat: limbs can be crippled, cover shatters, AI flanks and adapts
  • A 7+ hour fully voice acted campaign
  • Multiple modes: VR campaign, Zombies, PvE co-op PvP modding tools, sandbox systems, riot suppression missions, and more.
  • Cross-platform support: PC, VR (Quest 3 and beyond), modern consoles.

Gameplay Highlights

  • Tactical combat requiring strategy and adaptability
  • Environmental and narrative reactivity: your choices shape the world, people, and your own skills
  • Character customization with cosmetic outfits, gear, and weapon skins (no gameplay advantage)
  • Singleplayer and multiplayer support, with AI teammates in pve

Platforms & Access

  • Available on PC, VR, and consoles

  • PVP and Sandbox modes free to play; ATHENA’s single-player campaign will be a $20 USD purchase

  • Modding support planned for custom content creation (Maps, Guns, Etc.)

  • Recommended specs: mid-to-high-end gaming PC for best experience, especially VR and enhanced graphics

  • Follow ZeroForm Interactive socials and join the Discord: linktr.ee/zeroforminteractive

  • Testing currently invite-only for internal teams; public testing will be announced when ready

Not bad, really cool but I find the map and textures and graphics looking more like something from the source engine than roblox. (Not good)

Like compare it to Ares VR. Not that it’s any short of it, except in graphics. You may want to improve them a notch.

The games graphics are a focal point right now. We are improving them slowly every day.

Its on everything.

About your mention on ARES, we’ve had direct advice from the ares devs, and are giving us helpful advice on vr.

We have one of the best VR programmers on the engine quoniam working on VR.

Hi, updating here

We want to share an important update about our studio’s current projects, including ATHENA and a new game called Grid Protocol.

Unfortunately, development on ATHENA is currently paused. The project’s scope is very ambitious and complex, and combined with funding challenges and team burnout, we are taking time to regroup. While we had hoped for a summer release, that will not be possible. ATHENA is not cancelled we remain committed to finishing it, but we need time to refocus and secure resources.

What’s Next for ZeroForm Interactive?
While ATHENA is on hold, our primary focus will shift to completing Grid Protocol. This project will help sustain our studio financially and creatively, allowing us to continue developing quality games for our community. (For more info on this join our discord, its a stealth horror shooter game for flatscreen.)

We will provide updates as soon as we have new information

Thank you,
ZeroForm Interactive
