Achron Releases Today
San Francisco, CA August 29 in the year of our Lord
2011 – Today, Hazardous Software® is pleased to
announce that Achron™, the world's first time-travel real time
strategy game, is available for purchase and immediate download
at
achrongame.com and on Steam®. Available for PC, Achron
allows players to wield time as a weapon, enabling them to see
the future, change the past, and erase opponents from existence.
Merging classic RTS gameplay with unparalleled strategic
freedom, Achron enables multiple players the chance to outwit
and engage their opponents in open warfare utilizing real time
travel elements. Time travel strategy allows for creative and
subversive tactics which can be chained together to protect,
undermine, escape, and set traps in nearly infinite
combinations. Achron features uniquely competitive multiplayer,
and an engaging 35 mission single player campaign.
Building on the unique story opportunities presented by time
travel, Achron's single-player experience includes 35 missions
with multiple solutions for victory. The campaigns establish the
dangerous frontier of the Achron universe and introduce players
to navigating the offensive and defensive possibilities of time
travel.
“After more than 10 years of engineering and development, we are
excited about delivering Achron to the PC gaming community,”
said Dr. Chris Hazard, founder and CEO of Hazardous Software,
“From day one, we have been committed to making Achron one of
the most engaging and thought provoking real time strategy games
ever developed. Through working with the beta testing community
and competitive gamers, we have created a truly unique and
entertaining gaming experience.”
Customers who purchase Achron this week will and receive a free
digital download of Achron's orchestral/electronic soundtrack,
featuring over an hour of original music.
Powered by the innovative Resequence Engine, Achron features
true to life time travel consequences, paradoxes, and strategy.
The time manipulation technology powering Achron is making huge
ripples in the serious gaming community, including military,
business, and education.
