Press release:
Cambridge, UK, 13 April 2023.
The Cambridge-based (the UK) video games publisher and developer Jagex Ltd and Dublin (Irland)/Toronto-based (Canada) indie games developer Outlier Games, are today very happy and excited to announce that the full version (v1.0) of their spaceship management roguelike “This Means Warp”, is coming to PC via Steam on May 4th, 2023.

The frantic spaceship management roguelite launched in Early Access in March 2022 and has seen numerous updates, balance tweaks, and thrilling new content added. This Means Warp will also land on PlayStation, Xbox and Nintendo Switch later this year.

To explore the hostile galaxy in This Mean Warp, players will have to team up to battle dangerous enemies, adapt their strategies, and upgrade their ships to survive in the procedurally generated universe. Since its initial release, This Means Warp has seen ship-to-ship boarding, multi-ship battles, additional missions and a full arsenal of wacky weapons added to the game.

Lifting off into full launch will see the addition of a second player ship that will have players rethinking their approach to taking on their perilous journey. Other new additions include four new extra scenarios for players to overcome and new colour options to customise ships.

This Means Warp Features:

Procedurally generated challenges make every game unique with randomised maps, items, enemies, and encounters. Players will need to adapt to new challenges by making the best of their arsenal of weapons and upgrades.
Deep, strategic combat that requires players to think on their feet as they contend with hectic, real-time battles where they must balance beating their foes with keeping their ship in one piece.

Varied roster of crewmates will support players as the galaxy provides challenge and after challenge to overcome. Players can team up with up to three players or can choose to fill the ranks using a roster of AI crewmates.

This Means Warp is currently available in Steam Early Access for £16.75/$19.99/€19.50 and for more information about Jagex Partners visit the official site, Twitter, and Instagram. For more information on Outlier Games visit the official website.
