Tags: Battle Brothers; Overhype Studios

Since its release on Steam Early Access almost two years ago, Overhype Studios' strategy RPG Battle Brothers has transformed from a Codex Workshop underground hit to one of the community's most anticipated titles. Last month Overhype launched a beta for the game's final update, and it was clear that a release date announcement was imminent. Today, we learn that Battle Brothers' final 1.0 release will happen on March 24th. Overhype have put together a rousing trailer in honor of the occasion, which is included in their official announcement:



We’re excited to announce that after almost 2 years in Early Access, Battle Brothers will release in full on March 24, 2017.

Creating this game together with you has been a long and rewarding adventure, and we’re very happy with what the game has grown to become. Enjoy the new trailer and feature list of the upcoming 1.0 release.

FEATURES

  • Manage a medieval mercenary company in a procedurally generated open world.
  • Fight complex turn-based tactical battles with historical equipment and brutal injuries.
  • Permadeath. All characters that die in combat will stay dead – unless they return as the undead.
  • All characters come with their own background stories and traits. Want a stuttering ratcatcher, a greedy witch hunter or a drunkard disowned noble?
  • Character development without a restrictive class-system. Each character gains experience through combat, can level up and acquire powerful perks.
  • Equipment that matters. Different weapons grant unique skills – split shields with axes, stun enemies with maces, form a spearwall with spears or crush armor with a warhammer.
  • Diverse enemy roster. All enemies have unique equipment, skills and AI behavior.
  • A dynamic event system with atmospheric encounters and tough decisions outside of combat.
  • Three late game crises – a war between noble houses, a greenskin invasion and an undead scourge – add a looming threat.
  • Two full hours of orchestral soundtrack.
  • 70 Steam Achievements
With the finished game releasing, the Early Access discount of the last two years will also be lifted. Within the next two weeks, the price of Battle Brothers will be raised to 27.99€, 29.99$ or your local equivalent. If you want to get the game while it’s still discounted, then better grab it now!
After a bit of a false start, the 2017 year of incline begins in earnest. Get Battle Brothers while it's still cheap and make Josh Sawyer proud!

It was on my radar for quite some time now. Better buy before release; lower price. Looks fun.

It's always warms my cold dead heart to see indie project coming out of nowhere with potential out the whazoo, deliver on their promises and finally release their product on the unsuspecting masses. Let's hope for a successful release and many DLCs to expand it further!

Learned about it on codex long time ago, since then had a good feeling about this game. Bought supporter edition when it first came out on steam. No regrets.

mount & blade is better
MB gaymplay in nutshell: hold left mouse buton, ride horsie, release left mouse button -> 140 swing damage! Repeat until you get tendon inflammations.
Top shelf!

Sorry for not being rich as you.
If a difference of 8 $/€ is your price point for being rich/poor maybe you should consider other hobbies...
Why do you care about how much money I spend on my hobby?
Because you're a human being. I care about you. I got you, bb <3
