Ahead of the full release, the developer dropped a new launch trailer. It gives potential queen and kings of the anthill an opportunity to see the campaign ahead. Rendered in lifelike graphics, a 20-hour-long campaign finds your colony’s survival at stake. Sprawling out across a miniature ecosystem in the heart of the Fontainebleau forest. You play as the 103,683rd ant, determined to defend its colony. Take to the undergrowth in a photo realistic forest, explore the world, and overcome the threats that await.
You’ll take on enemy nests and natural predators in a variety of real time engagements. Trim your roster of ants to incorporate different capabilities. Use support and super-predator legion as you see fit and delve into an upgrade tree to access different ants. It’s all very familiar territory for StarCraft or Warcraft III veterans looking for a bold new perspective. Of course, you’ll need to deal with ants! Ants, all up in your monitor, and that might be a hard line for some of you.
