Scourge: Outbreak infects Steam for PC and Mac
Third-person sci-fi shooter Scourge: Outbreak is now available on Steam, and is 10 percent off ($7.19) until Wednesday, April 9. Developed by Tragnarion Studios, the game first launched on Xbox Live Arcade in July 2013 after being announced in May 2012. The squad-based shooter features eight-player competitive multiplayer modes like Team Deathmatch and Capture the Flag spread across five maps as well as a four-player cooperative campaign mode. Tragnarion Studios also launched the game's two DLC packs this week, the Blindside and Fan Packs. Both are currently 20 percent off ($1.59) until April 9. The Blindside DLC, an add-on that amounts to six versus maps, is packed in with a digital artbook and soundtrack in the Ambrosia Bundle version of the game, which is also 10 percent off this week ($8.09).

The Scourge Project hits Steam in March; new trailer now
Tragnarion Studios has released the first trailer for it's upcoming episodic shooter for PC, Xbox Live Arcade and PSN, The Scourge Project. The trailer sports Unreal-powered graphics and paints a picture of a bleak world in which a monstrous menace seems to have infested all walks of life. The gameplay should be familiar to fans of third-person shooters, and appears to bare more than a few similarities to Gears of War (huge soldiers, space bugs, the color brown, etc.). As previously announced, the game will featured co-op for up to four players as well as multiplayer for up to sixteen players. It's also slated to have "a unique focus on co-operative narrative and gameplay," in which different characters have a different perspective on the story. The Scourge Project: Episodes 1 & 2 will hit Steam this March, with XBLA and PSN releases to follow.
