Paradox Interactive and Harebrained Schemes announced that the first modern turn-based, tactical combat game set within the MechWarrior universe, Battletech, will launch this April for Windows PC and Mac. In order to celebrate this announcement, the publisher has also released a new video that you can view below.
In the first of a three-part video series, Jordan Weisman (creator of BattleTech), Mitch Gitelman (Studio Manager) and Mike McCain (Game Director) detail BATTLETECH’s unique combat system and the tactical challenges players will face commanding building-sized war machines on the battlefield. There’s also a fair amount of ‘Mech-punching, naturally.
Jordan Weisman, CEO of Harebrained Schemes and creator of the original board game and BATTLETECH universe, said:
“BATTLETECH has been a passion project for our team and for the fans who helped to make it a reality. We have done our very best to deliver a tactical ‘Mech experience that will delight long-time fans and excite new players who have yet to enter the MechWarrior universe. We know players are anxious to get their hands on the final game, and HBS joins Paradox in our excitement to deliver this April.”
Enjoy!
