Press release:
SAN FRANCISCO – Dec. 12, 2022.
The San Francisco-based (the US) indie games developer TMA Games. are today very happy and excited to announce that they are going to release the full version of their battleship builder “Waves of Steel”, on February 6th, 2023, for PC via Steam.

The full version comes with new bosses, missions, and the finale to the game’s campaign. The aquatic chaos will also make its way to Xbox Series X|S in the near future.

The upcoming content in version 1.0 of Waves of Steel pits naval captains against the “Gale Barrier Ultimate Weapon,” a transforming warship that pays homage to classic anime mecha franchises. Once it’s been sent to the scrap heap, confront the overwhelming power of “The Biggest Gun”, which needs to be seen to be believed, and things continue to escalate from there!

Customize cruisers to blast through the high seas against an eclectic cast of maniacal supervillains and their unconventional naval weaponry. Support Captain Quinn on a mission to save planet Earth from the mysterious armadas of Jörmungandr. Progress through more than 30 missions full of traditional and outlandish challenges to earn new tech and equipment. Build a bigger and better battleship, a match for every deranged superweapon that these antagonists can dream up.

Equip each ship from a selection of over 400 different parts, including massive naval artillery, torpedo launchers, anti-aircraft guns, lasers and railguns, plasma lances, giant sawblades, and more. Skillfully use game-changing superpowers like an invulnerable energy shield, ramming drill, time-stopping bubble, and yes, a kickflip, among many, many others. Bring flair to the fight with an in-depth cosmetic editor offering endless paint jobs, alternate-universe flag designs, decals, lights, and more audacious adornments.

Take advantage of a wealth of accessibility options. Rebind controls, adjust HUD colors, change the game speed and difficulty, and even configure any and every weapon to acquire targets and fire automatically. Waves of Steel strives to allow everyone to express themselves, while enjoying over-the-top destructive naval combat.

“It has been so hard to keep my mouth shut about these last missions,” said Chris Weisiger, Founder of TMA Games.

“They really embody what I like most about Waves of Steel: fast-paced naval action that goes in completely ridiculous directions. There’s one more surprise waiting for you once you finish those final boss fights. Alongside all the minigames, bonus missions, and other secret content, we’re delivering an incredibly over-the-top experience next year!”

Waves of Steel exits Steam Early Access on Windows PCs Feb. 6, 2023 with a 25% launch discount price to $14.99 USD. For more information on Waves of Steel, please visit the official website, follow the game on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and join the community Discord.
