Cantata Out Now in Early Access, Brings Sci-Fi Strategy and Tactical Battling to Steam
The release happens alongside the Modern Wolf publisher Steam Sale, with huge discounts across its catalogue of strategy and sim games
May 12, 2022
London, UK - May 12, 2022 - Indie game publisher Modern Wolf and developer Afterschool Studio have today launched turn-based tactics game Cantata in Early Access on Steam.
From today, Cantata players will be able to dive into the game’s deep story campaign and enjoy the first three chapters in a character-driven narrative centring on three factions: Humans, Machines and Aliens.
Players choose their faction, pick from the nine playable commanding officers, and expand their hold on the planet of Shoal by deploying faction-specific units and unleashing the faction’s unique abilities. Be wary, however, as Shoal itself takes a turn alongside the player, and with its weather, fauna, and secrets, has the ability to fight back...
Take charge using brute force or as a tactical maestro, as you explore and investigate the most effective route to your opponent.
Modern Wolf also kick off their Steam publisher sale this week.
Fans of simulation and strategy titles can enjoy discounts on the following games:
- Cantata (20% discount) - turn-based tactics and strategy
- Mechajammer (25% discount) - cyberpunk thriller
