Free to Play third-person shooter Loadout is finally leaving its early access roots and heading into proper release on January 31st 2014 via Steam. The game features some very awesome cartoon like gore along with tons of customization. You and your team of crazy people will blow off heads, shoot through torso’s and of course blow bodies up into streams of red viscera all in the name of fun.
How many weapon combinations can you make in Loadout? According to developer Edge of Reality it’s somewhere over the rainbow of 44 billion combo’s. So I guess that means if you don’t like a gun it’s your own damn fault, so start changing out parts already and help your team. Be sure to check out the launch trailer that was put together by the gang over at Rooster Teeth.

PRESS RELEASE
EDGE OF REALITY’S LOADOUT LAUNCHES JANUARY 31st
BILLIONS of Weapon Configurations Provide a Completely Over-the-Top Shooter Experience
AUSTIN, TX (January 16, 2014) – Edge of Reality, developers of the upcoming Free-to-Play shooter Loadout, today announced that the game will officially be available on Friday, January 31, 2014. The development team has spent the last three years fine tuning the mechanics and embracing the maniacal and addictive nature of Loadout’s gameplay, ensuring their debut title will be ready for its highly-anticipated launch.
“After spending the last two decades contributing to the development of some amazing franchises, like Mass Effect, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater, The Sims, and Dragon Age, Loadout is our studio’s first original IP, and we couldn’t be more excited to open it up to the masses,” said Rob Cohen, CEO of Edge of Reality. “We started this as a passion project, working on it when we could, and trying to create something original and truly player friendly. What we’ve got now is a game that’s a blast to play, quick and easy to get into, and empowers players with insane amounts of customization.”
In fact, Loadout’s weapon-crafting system runs so deep that there are over44 billion possible creations to assemble, enabling players to transform weapon behavior in extreme ways, thereby defining their own class and play style. Combining weapon-crafting with acrobatic movement and over-the-top comedic violence, Loadout is packed with personality and style that deliver a fresh and satisfying alternative to the vast array of modern combat shooters.
Loadout is currently in beta via Early Access on Steam. Loadout will officially be released for the PC on January 31, 2014. For more Loadout mayhem, visit www.loadout.com and follow us on Twitter and Facebook.
