Offworld Industries has announced that Starship Troopers: Extermination will be coming to early access today. The developer, in collaboration with Sony Pictures Consumer Products has been open about Starship Troopers: Extermination being proper early access to begin with, meaning features will be added over time.
The team explained that “by inviting players into the beginning stages of public access, the Offworld Industries team is excited to enlist the community to help guide what features and mechanics to build upon and evolve before the game’s eventual transition into 1.0. Player feedback will be integral to the ongoing creative process, as Offworld Industries works to iterate upon popular requests and add more content throughout the weeks and months following the Early Access launch”.
