When new struggle video games are revealed the overwhelming majority share a really related look and aesthetic, however typically one comes alongside that stands out as… completely different. That may positively be mentioned for Operation: Polygon Storm, a army technique recreation that, on the floor at the very least, doesn’t take itself too severely with its BattleBit vibe. If that piqued some early curiosity, I come bearing two items of fine information for you: it’s acquired 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 strategy game with a great deal of completely different potentialities with regards to mapping out your tug-of-war battles, it takes a extra laid again method by being an auto battler with “minimal micromanagement”, in keeping with developer Poisonous Studio.
Don’t go pondering that this boils all the way down to a fundamental, underbaked technique expertise, although. There’s nonetheless loads to wrap your head round, and also you’ve acquired numerous upgradeable models and utility to select from. Infantry, artillery strikes, claymores, tanks, and way more are all at your disposal.
To be truthful, a comparability to BattleBit could also be a tad harsh with regards to the artwork type (it’s clearly not fairly as low-res as the favored FPS game), but it surely does share its love for destruction. Buildings and factors of canopy are all absolutely destructible, including one other layer of technique into the combination.
Whereas I feel this may make for a fantastic multiplayer recreation expertise, the one factor to think about with Polygon Storm is that it’s single-player solely. Nonetheless, there’s nonetheless enjoyable available, and also you haven’t acquired 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 out there on Steam, Epic, and GOG. In case you can’t wait that lengthy, there’s a free demo over on its Steam page that you would be able to play proper now.
In a press launch, writer Untold Tales confirms that it’s coming to PC a little bit sooner than its console variations (they launch on August 26) in order that Polygon Storm will be a part of “a large, yet-to-be-announced Steam occasion that will probably be held in mid-August.” Eyes peeled for that one, people.
