Nekro Action Game Coming To Steam Early Access Next Month For Linux

Nekro is a dark-action game that was funded on Kickstarter in May of 2012, they are releasing the first Early Access version onto Steam on May 2nd.

The game raised $158 thousand on Kickstarter against a goal of $150 thousand, so they did reasonably well to get that much over-funding.

So what is it?
Nekro is an overhead, randomly generated action game about summoning evil forces of darkness to do your bidding!

Hailing from the era of great classics such as Myth: The Fallen Lords, Giants: Citizen Kabuto, Dungeon Keeper and more, we are creating a game rooted deep in PC gaming's history, but with all the flourishes you've come to expect from a modern experience.

Combining full HD graphics, a unique premise, solid game-play, and tight controls Nekro can be one hell of a game - but not without you...

Features
  • Create unholy armies using the corpses of your enemy!
  • Blood permanently stains the battlefield; body parts squish, bounce, and roll!
  • Upgrade your minions to create the perfect ‘monster loadout’!
  • Equip powerful armors that literally change the playstyle of the game!
  • Dozens of abilities, enemies, monsters and powers!
  • A randomized world event system throws exciting twists into each match!
  • 3 unique factions to conquer or enslave!
  • No play through is ever the same!


I must say this one is incredibly pretty looking, it has an almost Dota2 style of graphics and that's not a bad thing. It should also be no surprise it's coming to Steam since it was greenlit. Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.
