DaRmaZat Publisher Hooded Horse and developer Overhype Studios announced that MENACE will receive a playable demo in late September for PC via Steam. The team also confirmed that the full release will no longer arrive in Q3 2025, with a new timeline to be shared in early September.
Update September 29, 2025: Overhype Studios has announced the demo will be released today, September 29!
From the creators of Battle Brothers, MENACE is a turn-based tactical RPG set in the distant Wayback system, where players command a strike force of marines, mercenaries, and criminals against both human and alien threats.
Operating from the strike cruiser TCRN Impetus, you’ll train squads, equip vehicles and mechs, and navigate alliances with local factions while carrying out branching operations across war-torn planets. Every choice affects relations, battlefield options, and the survival of your units in a campaign defined by high stakes and permanent consequences.
