PRESS RELEASE
Miner Wars 2081 just got Greenlit by Steam
Prague, Czech Republic, October 16th – Miner Wars 2081 made it! We just got Greenlit by Steam and now we’ve started to count days (or weeks?) until Miner Wars 2081 gets on Steam
Our Miner Wars Fans,
We have such great news. We have been picked along with 20 other games by the Steam community. Yes, we made it – it’s just a few weeks until Miner Wars 2081 is released on Steam.
Everyone who has pre-ordered Miner Wars 2081 will get their Steam key.
So what’s next? Miner Wars 2081 is currently in beta, it’s almost become the final product, and just about all missions are playable. We will be making new updates next week (bug fixes, voice over for all missions, polishing, optimizations).
I am very glad to state that everyone who has played the beta says it’s a great game; they love the controls, the action, it’s very polished and that if they could vote they would give it 9/10. Which is good for a niche 6DOF Space-Sim game, right? 🙂
Thank you everyone for your support and votes. We wouldn’t have made it without you. Honestly, we wouldn’t have.
Many Thanks,
Marek Rosa & The Miner Wars Team
