Stardock and Mohawk Games are extremely proud to announce today the launch of Offworld Trading Company on Steam Early Access. For a limited time, players can buy into the beta for a discounted $35.99 price and immediately start competing for the boundless riches waiting to be extracted from Mars.
Offworld Trading Company is mostly feature-complete already. The cutthroat competition in the real-time, player-driven market is fierce, as randomly generated maps present new challenges and opportunities in every match. No two games are the same, and no one build order or strategy can ever become dominant as the scarcity of each resource affects every decision you make.
Free-for-all multiplayer, competitive or cooperative teamplay, and the dynamic single-player campaign are all available for play in the Early Access beta. As we march toward our 2016 release date, we will be continually iterating on the gameplay to ensure that Offworld Trading Company is as balanced, polished, and fun as humanly possible when we launch. We've also got some pretty cool ideas for the multiplayer metagame that will be rolled into the beta as they're ready.
The dev team streams Offworld Trading Company all the time. Every Thursday at 3pm Eastern we talk through gameplay and explain our development philosophies on our official Twitch channel, and you can catch many of our lunchtime multiplayer games on our individual Twitch channels (Soren, Scott, and others all stream regularly).
Welcome to Offworld Trading Company. May your goon squads be effective and your stock prices high!
