In an exciting development, the esteemed gaming publisher once known as MicroProse, now renowned for its simulation and strategy titles, is ecstatic to share that Urban Strife, a distinctive fusion of turn-based strategy, post-apocalyptic survival, and role-playing game (RPG) elements, will be available on Steam in Early Access starting December 10th, 2024.

Created by White Pond Games, Urban Strife is a game that merges traditional turn-based strategy dynamics with contemporary survival aspects, along with an engaging narrative that is sure to enthrall enthusiasts of tactical battles and hard-hitting post-apocalyptic storytelling.

In the devastated southern United States, Urban Strife offers you a chance to restore and fortify a rundown sanctuary. As you traverse a perilous world, forming alliances with various factions, engaging in tactical combat, and managing resources wisely become vital for your survival. A fortunate encounter with Urban Shelter’s benevolent inhabitants finds you delivering the alarming news of an enormous zombie horde approaching from Atlanta. To endure, you must mobilize the militia, secure crucial supplies, and expand the base at all costs. Throughout your journey, you’ll have opportunities to battle merciless warlords, gather new allies, and restore humanity from the verge of collapse.

The game’s Early Access release will include:

  • Immersive Survival and RPG Mechanics: Scavenge, craft, and negotiate with local factions to sustain your shelter’s hunger, health, and morale, whilst managing your team’s wounds, training, and equipment.
  • Classic Turn-Based Combat with a Twist: A classic Action Points system combined with a unique dynamic zombie horde movement for streamlined, challenging battles.
  • Faction-Based Storyline: Navigate alliances and conflicts with three major factions: the Army rebels, a zombie-worshiping cult, and a violent biker gang.
  • Real Ballistics and Combat Physics: Each weapon class—handguns, shotguns, rifles, and more— comes with simulated ballistics and offers distinct advantages and drawbacks, making the choice of hardware a strategic decision.

During the Early Access phase of Urban Strife, players can anticipate an assortment of fresh elements, modifications based on community suggestions, and ongoing enhancements to content. The developers will use player input to polish and enlarge the game’s systems and narratives.

Urban Strife will be available on Steam Early Access starting December 10th, 2024.
