Get a Taste of the Mercenary Life  in Blackfox Studios Shared World of Miscreants and Monsters

STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN – November 16th, 2020 – Independent developer and publisher Fatshark today announced that the post-apocalyptic turn-based game Dreadlands, developed by Blackfox Studios, now has a free demo available on Steam.

Having left Steam Early Access last week, Blackfox Studios are giving PC gamers the chance to dip their toe into the mercenary life with its free single player demo now available to download from Steam. The demo allows gamers to sample the joys of strolling the post apocalyptic landscape of Dreadlands, heavily armed of course, to take on the nefarious gangs, creatures and other toxic entities that dot the wretched hive of villainy.

Set in a living post-apocalyptic shared world, the full release version on Steam allows players to explore Dreadlands by travelling across its many regions with their misfit gang of miscreants and mercenaries. This is a world where players frequently encounter and interact with each other, sometimes they cooperate, other times they’ll pick bloody fights in bloody PvP battles where resources and combat skills will be tested to their fullest.

“The demo gives players a great opportunity to see the amount of work we’ve put into enhancing the player experience based on the amazing feedback from the player community during Early Access. Visuals, U.I, balancing, passive and active skills as well as weapons and more have all undergone a nip and tuck to make Dreadlands a competitive turn-based tactical skirmish game.” Said Blackfox Studios CEO and Dreadlands Creator Peter Nilsson.

Got what it takes to sample the post-apocalyptic wastelands, check out the Dreadlands demo here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1054690/Dreadlands/

The anime and manga are set in the near future, at a time when the mysterious Fleet of Fog has seized control over the World Ocean.  An enigmatic and invincible squadron is made up of the reincarnations of legendary ships from the first half of the 20th century, with Kongō, Kirishima, and Takao being among them. 

Equipped with a mysterious superweapon, and led by battleship Yamato, the new masters of the oceans block the humans from accessing the seas—destroying anything that dares to move offshore.  Many corners of the earth, including Japan, find themselves isolated and cut off from the rest of the world. 

Ships of the Fleet of Fog are commanded by their human-like Mental Models. Iona, the Mental Model of Japanese submarine I-401, chooses to defect across to the humans in a bid to turn the tide of the war against the Fleet of Fog.
