Squad Comes to Steam Early Access

There was an announcement a couple of weeks ago from Offworld Industries that their tactical shooter Squad was coming to Steam shortly. True to their word, they have brought the game to the digital shelves of Valve's storefront on time as expected. With that release comes a shiny new trailer that the freshman developer hope will encourage a few new players to come and join the battles

With a background of providing a balance point between hardcore milsim and cartoonish twitch shooters, Squad Early Access focuses attention toward the flow and pace of battle with teams as large as 36 per side initially (increasing to 50 as the game develops) fighting over 5 maps on launch day. The game also contains four factions, the US Army, Russian Ground Forces, Insurgents and Irregular Militia duking it out on terrain taken from real world satellite data of frontline locales.
