Sol Contingency had good potential too, but it seems Overload is the only 6DoF game in actually active production remaining.. Will watch this closely Smile

Definitely looking forward to this, I played the original teaser/demo back when it was released and while it was obviously bare bones, the shooting and design themselves were pretty damn solid. Hope the final product can deliver, we need a comeback of the genre Very Happy

Our plan is:

- One more Early Access release (Version 0.9) sometime in February. This will include one more single-player level, localization, and nearly-final game balancing, bug fixes, and optimization.
- A closed beta version of multiplayer will be released on PC (Windows, Linux, Mac) before the final release. Details to be announced closer to launch.
- Final release in May/June for PC (Windows, Linux, Mac), PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.

In the meantime, this is the best source port to play the original game like a boss

Good.
Though i must say in the trailer it lacks any real charme.

There was another similar Descent successor in EA / coming soon. Can't remember the name though.

Really enjoyable "little" game. It's not perfect but feels, looks and plays like Descent. Recommended.
