When new struggle video games are revealed the overwhelming majority share a really comparable look and aesthetic, however generally one comes alongside that stands out as… totally different. That may undoubtedly be stated for Operation: Polygon Storm, a army technique recreation that, on the floor not less than, doesn’t take itself too critically with its BattleBit vibe. If that piqued some early curiosity, I come bearing two items of fine information for you: it’s bought a free Steam demo you possibly can play proper now, and its newly-announced launch date is simply across the nook.
If that is your first time seeing Operation: Polygon Storm, let me get you on top of things. Whereas it’s a army technique recreation with a great deal of totally different potentialities in the case of mapping out your tug-of-war battles, it takes a extra laid again strategy by being an auto battler with “minimal micromanagement”, in keeping with developer Poisonous Studio.
Don’t go pondering that this boils right down to a primary, underbaked technique expertise, although. There’s nonetheless a lot to wrap your head round, and also you’ve bought quite a lot of upgradeable items and utility to select from. Infantry, artillery strikes, claymores, tanks, and rather more are all at your disposal.
To be honest, a comparability to BattleBit could also be a tad harsh in the case of the artwork model (it’s clearly not fairly as low-res as the favored FPS recreation), but it surely does share its love for destruction. Buildings and factors of canopy are all totally destructible, including one other layer of technique into the combination.
Whereas I believe this could make for a terrific multiplayer recreation expertise, the one factor to think about with Polygon Storm is that it’s single-player solely. Nevertheless, there’s nonetheless enjoyable available, and also you haven’t bought lengthy to attend till it arrives.
The Operation: Polygon Storm launch date for PC gamers has been confirmed for Monday, August 12. It’ll be accessible on Steam, Epic, and GOG. For those who can’t wait that lengthy, there’s a free demo over on its Steam web page you can play proper now.
In a press launch, writer Untold Tales confirms that it’s coming to PC just a little sooner than its console variations (they launch on August 26) in order that Polygon Storm might be a part of “an enormous, yet-to-be-announced Steam occasion that will probably be held in mid-August.” Eyes peeled for that one, people.
