Saber Interactive and developer Slipgate Ironworks has released a new Tempest Rising video, and it’s a four minute overview of the game.
Tempest Rising launches in two weeks on PC, and technically it’s published by Knights Peak, which is a label within a label (Saber Interactive’s 3D Realms Label: yes, it’s confusing). This new trailer shows off the overall narrative of the game, the single player mode, multiplayer section, core mechanics, and even the factions that are at war within the title.
Here’s the details on the upcoming RTS, from the press release:
Tempest Rising transports players to a battle-scarred 1997 in an alternate timeline where the Cuban Missile Crisis went nuclear. In the fallout from the war, a strange, red, electrical vine known as Tempest spread across the planet and changed the course of history, awakening an ancient race lying dormant known as the Veti.
Experience the gripping story of two unique factions across two epic campaigns with deep and rewarding gameplay that keeps the focus on strategy and skill, plus original music from legendary Command & Conquer composer Frank Klepacki.
Lead the highly mobile, advanced peacekeeping corps of the Global Defense Forces or the hard-hitting Tempest Dynasty in both single-player and multiplayer modes. Players take full command of the battlefield as they build up their base, lead their armies into combat, and execute bold strategies to emerge victorious.
Tempest Rising is coming to PC on April 24th via Steam. However, you can get it seven days early on April 17th if you’re keen, with the deluxe edition.
