03/13/2017 - Overload Released on Steam Early AccessOverload Released on Steam Early Access
Developed by the creators of the groundbreaking Descent series, Overload features fast-paced combat action in a fully-3D
world. Face off against menacing robot enemies in the single-player story mode or in the survival Challenge Mode.
The initial Early Access release features four Challenge Mode levels, a sample single-player level, 12 explosive weapons,
and ten terrifying robot enemies. Updated releases will follow every 2-4 weeks. The full game is scheduled to
be completed later this year and will also be available for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. The full game will feature a
15-level single-player story mode, with more weapons, robots, and bosses. A multiplayer expansion is expected to be
released 4-6 months later and will be provided free to all purchasers of the single-player game.
Overload is in
development by Revival Productions, which is owned by Mike Kulas and Matt Toschlog, the founders of Descent developer Parallax
Software. “Matt and I have talked for years about doing an updated 6DOF game,” said Mike Kulas. “The
pieces fell in place a couple years ago and we started on Overload.” Matt Toschlog added, “It’s
been great working with old friends and colleagues on a project that’s so close to our hearts.”
Overload
is being designed by renowned indie developer Luke Schneider, who was the lead level designer on Descent 3 before founding
Radiangames (Inferno 2, Super Crossfighter, Slydris). Said Mr. Schneider, “I got into game development because
of Descent, so it’s been awesome to create a new 6DOF game for the 21st century.”
Revival hopes to
make an announcement soon on a DRM-free option for early release.
