Canada, 6 July, 2021 – Mech Armada is heading to early access on August 10th!
Combining elements from multiple genres to create an ever-changing turn-based tactics game, Mech Armada is inspired by the likes of Darkest Dungeon and Slay the Spire, and gives players a heavy dose of deckbuilding (with robots, not cards), resource management, fast tactical tiled-based combat and perma-death.
Set against a campaign of skirmishes to defeat the Swarm, you’ll need to customize your mech loadouts, utilise terrain, and play to your strengths in procedurally generated encounters that continually increase in difficulty.
“There is an opportunity to combine the depth of tactics games with the replayability of deckbuilding roguelikes to create a new experience that players can enjoy over and over,” says Lioncode founder, Sergio Garces.
Releasing into Early Access on Steam on August 10, 2021 for $14.99, Mech Armada’s story sees you take on the Swarm, a strange race hellbent on destroying the world. It’s down to the player to utilise “replicator technology” – a way to quickly bring powerful mechs to life – to destroy the creatures and save humanity.
Mech Armada can be wishlisted now, and for more information head to the official website.
