Overhype Studios, the team behind the cult-favorite tactical RPG Battle Brothers, brought their upcoming project MENACE to Gamescom.
Unlike their gritty medieval debut, this new title moves the action into a hard sci-fi setting, with a focus on squad-based combat, named characters, and the ever-present threat of permanent death.
In a new developer video, the team discussed how their love of the genre, tabletop inspirations, and the influence of XCOM all shaped the game’s direction.
Missions will challenge players with tough decisions, while the narrative structure promises to carry the same unforgiving edge that made Battle Brothers stand out. If you want to learn more about it, here you can find a lot of details, while below is the PC Gamer interview with the devs.
