Sleepwalkers,
Today, during the gamescom Opening Night Live pre-show, we revealed our latest trailer (and our release date!)
We’ll see you in the ECA on January 15th.
The trailer is a little different, we know. The poem “The Tyger” by William Blake is all about the question, “How can the same hands that create the innocent lamb also create the savage tiger?” We found that to be an interesting parallel with machines themselves: the dichotomy of war machines as incredible mechanical marvels, as well as tools of destruction. The way that people can craft a machine to save a life just as easily as they can craft a machine to take one.
And take a closer little look at our Light and Medium tanks. You've seen our Light Tank quite a few times, but perhaps not it's larger counterpart...
The light tank is nimble, quick and able to dodge projectiles and flee from fights at the blink of an eye. The medium tank is a mechanical behemoth capable of soaking up large amounts of damage and dealing even more. As you progress through TankRat, you will be able to choose between these two machines depending on your needs on the battlefield.
You can load your tank up from a selection of over twenty-five weapons, from the 90mm cannon that tears through metal, to the 120mm cannon that can strike enemies with precision from a distance. How you build your tank is up to you.
Scavenge the remains of your enemies.
Rebuild.
Destroy.
Come back stronger.
See you in the ECA, Sleepwalkers.
