(PR) Gear up and take the fight to the Menace next February

Hooded Horse and Battle Brothers creators Overhype Studios are excited to announce the early access release date of their upcoming sci-fi turn-based tactics game, MENACE. Gear up and prepare to fight when the game deploys into early access for PC on February 5, 2026, coming to Steam, GOG, the Epic Games Store, and the Microsoft Store. It will be released day one via PC Game Pass (Game Preview).

Those eager for a taste of what the game has to offer can grab the free demo, available now on Steam, that provides a complete procedurally generated operation and some army-building options for enhanced replayability. This is primarily a combat-focused demo, with elements such as the strategic layer left out. Lead a strike force of marines, misfits, and miscreants in the Wayback system, a lawless frontier far from the core worlds, beset by pirates, warlords, morally bankrupt corporations, and fractured local governments who struggle for dominance. Aboard the TCRN Impetus, players will lead an ensemble cast of colourful characters who will lead their forces, whether that's fielding mechs, tanks, or infantry squads.
