Lucid Game’s moba-inspired vehicle action game is coming to Early Access on Steam PC and PS4 August 28.

Press release:

LIVERPOOL, UK – AUGUST 16 2018 – Independent developers, Lucid Games, announced today that their high octane arena-based vehicle combat game, Switchblade, is coming to Early Access on PC via Steam and PlayStation®4 on August 28.

Teamwork is everything in Lucid’s moba-inspired vehicle action game. Switchblade sees players compete in a frantic 5v5 arena-style battle. Switching seamlessly between heavily armed sci-fi vehicles at any time and creating endless tactical choices, teams must react quickly, plan strategically and work together in order to take down opposition towers.

Battling and escorting explosive mobs, healing teammates damaged vehicles and defending towers from the enemy onslaught – every vehicle has a strategic role to play in Switchblade. Players must choose their roles wisely and be willing to switch in an instant to make every second count in the arena. This is war at 150 miles per hour, requiring fast tactical decision making, individual skill and relentless teamwork to be victorious.

Players will be able to join the Switchblade Early Access Founders Program on Steam or PS4 at launch. Founders will benefit from a special Founders Pack, details of which will be announced in the coming weeks. They can also visit the official Steam community hub now, here.

For all the latest news on Switchblade, follow the game on Twitter, like it on Facebook and visit the official website. You can also join in the conversation on the Switchblade forums, the official Discord channel and keep up to date with Lucid on Twitch and YouTube.
