Hey r/Games, we’re back 6 months later, in the final stretch of EA now! We’ve achieved a 94% 👍 review score, have over 100 hours of playable content, and are on a weekly new map release streak that should continue all the way to launch this spring (more specific date announcement coming in the new year).

Our studio’s putting everything into this, but with nearly 19,000 games released on Steam this year, as an indie we could really use your support spreading the word!

Cyber Knights: Flashpoint puts you in the role of an underworld mercenary running a crew for hire in the dark future of 2231. Megacorporations, nanotech and quantum computing have radically altered the world… and your character is one of the few equipped (quite literally, with illegal cyberware) to handle it.

It’s an in-depth cyberpunk tactical RPG with a lot to offer:

• 3rd Person Turn-based Squad Tactics: XCOM-like combat with our own favorite additions: gridless movement, environmental cover, specialized overwatch, initiative manipulation and more.
  • Independent enemy unit AI opens up a world of creative stealth options; pick them off one by one, stage diversions, or use advanced tech to sneak right by them.
  • Or go loud and make the most of powerful abilities and tricked out weapons to cut through them fast, accomplish your objectives, and get out alive.
• The Heist Experience: Choose your jobs to build your rep without taking on too much heat. Work your network of underworld contacts to trade favors, pay bribes, and gain advantages before taking on a heist. Plan your path through multi-stage missions, and commit your crew to legwork that could reveal new opportunities or threats.
• Dynamic Stories and Evolving Characters: Your squad members evolve as you play, shaped by your choices, their injuries, interactions, even their presence on some missions.
  • Inspired by years of tabletop RPGs, our custom-built Casting Director story engine uses all this information to choose and place squad members and NPCs into world events and storylines it selects for you on each playthrough.
  • Who will end up a betrayer, a friend in need, or the villain this time? Create new squads, discover new stories, and watch how your choices make it all fit together.

If you want a new great tactical RPG with a unique strategy layer, we’d love your support. We’re 34%-off for the Steam Winter Sale, the last time we’ll be at this deep of a discount through launch and probably a while beyond. But happy to simply get added to your wishlist as well; we know EA’s not for everyone even this close to completion, just want to be transparent about pricing.

We’re here to answer any questions in the comments. Hope you’ll check out the game and please, help us spread the word this holiday season! 🙏😄 Cheers!
