Atlas Reactor launches today for PC

Trion Worlds unique PC strategy title Atlas Reactor officially launches today for Steam, Amazon, and via Trion’s website for PC. Priced at $29.99, the game also offers an alternative free mode that cycles through the various playable characters weekly if you’re looking to try it out.

I’ve actually spent a bit of time with the game since last week, and definitely think it’s worth a look. My review will be a little ways out, but its a pretty unique multiplayer experience, offering an isometric, 4 vs. 4, strategy game, complete with various turn phases, unique abilities, unlockables, and a host of odd characters that fall into three distinct classes.

Check out the full press release and screens attached below.
