Alpha sign-ups are now open for The Red Solstice 2: Survivors
Developer Ironward has today announced that alpha sign-ups for their sequel to the best-selling original, The Red Solstice 2: Survivors are now open. To sign up to play the alpha, you’ll need to join the mailing list. To accompany the announcement, Ironward has released the second in a planned series of trailers that explore the gritty sci-fi world of the game, and you can watch it below:
The Red Solstice 2: Survivors manages to blend real-time action with an in-depth strategy to fight against an insidious virus that threatens to consume the universe. You’ll be able to play with up to eight other people in a tense co-op experience through squad-based battles that mix the fast-paced battles of Helldivers with dense strategy games like X-COM.
“One of my favourite movies of all time is Aliens and the idea of creating a game that embodies this, with the right feeling, is something that always inspired me,” said lead developer, Hrvoje Horvatek. “After playing the Night of the Dead map mod for Warcraft 3 I first caught a glimpse of that atmosphere I had imagined, and this inspired me to create my own mod for Warcraft 3, Night of the Dead: Special Ops, which became hugely popular at the time and ultimately led to the creation of The Red Solstice franchise.”
