Asteroids: Outpost Now Avaliable

The PC survival online game is available via Steam Early Access.

Asteroids: Outpost, the re-imagining of the classic Atari game, is now available on PC through Steam Early Access. You can buy the game today for $19.79, a 34 percent markdown from its eventual $30 price. Atari is calling the title, which was initially announced back in February, an "MMO survival game."

"As a socially driven, multiplayer, survival experience it is essential that we design game content that accounts for the way our users actually play," Atari said. "We've built this world, we've packed it with incredibly fun mechanics, and now we need YOU to help bring it all to life."

When will the final version of Outpost be available? Atari doesn't have a strict schedule, saying the game will remain in Early Access "as long as needed."

"While we don't anticipate this to go on forever, the launch product can be seen as a core game, with an ongoing, stream of updates as close to monthly as possible," the company said.
