Press release:
Ojai, California, September 15, 2021.
The US-based indie games developer Dusk Wave Arts LLC are today very happy and excited to announce that their unique real-time strategy and tactics game “DELPHYQ” is coming to PC via Steam Early Access on October 19th, 2021.
“DELPHYQ” is a real-time strategy and tactics game that puts you in the seat of a Mastermind. Analyze the overall situation, evaluate your options and available missions, plan your squadron’s assault and execute your decisive plan.
Plan the mission – Gather intel and design your strategy
In a dystopian sci-fi world, your goal is to end the tyrannical corporate armistice known as the Balance. As the Mastermind of an elite group of combatants known as Operators, you make key strategical decisions based on the intel you collected to plan your unit’s every move. Your choices will determine the outcome of the encounters your soldiers will face.
But make no mistake, you can’t rest on your laurels after a successful mission in Delphyq. The enemy AI learns from your tactics to better counter you in the next one.
Early Access
From October 19th and the arrival of Delphyq in Early Access, players will be able to enjoy all the features presented as well as 3 tactical maps to master. 4 new maps will be added during the EA, as well as possible features to improve the gamers’ experience with Delphyq.
