We have some great news for you! Overload will move out of Early Access for release on May 31. The game will have the entire 15-level single-player campaign, challenge mode with everything unlockable, and full multiplayer support. We are proud of the progress we accomplished through Early Access, and are excited for you to play the entire game. Today also marks the start of Overload’s press push leading up to launch, and we’ve got a brand-new action-packed trailer to celebrate. Check it out on our YouTube channel. Our PR push is not limited to the press release and trailer. We have a great group of streamers who will be playing Overload over the next couple weeks. We’ll announce those as the time nears. We’ll also begin streaming from our office each Tuesday and Saturday at 2:00 PM CT, with our first broadcast on April 24th. If you stop by our Twitch channel , you’ll be able to check out us playing Overload, and in future streams you may even catch a glimpse of the first five levels with story elements included. In addition to Twitch, another great way to stay in touch with Revival and find out what’s going on with Overload is to join our Discord channel . We even updated the playable teaser. With many people going there to see how Overload looks and plays on their system, we didn’t want something a year old. You can get it off Steam or download from our site. Thanks again for your continued support.

EARLY ACCESS ROADMAP
Our focus with Early Access is to make Challenge Mode the best it can be through iteration, polish, and player feedback. We will also be revealing about a third of the single-player campaign with a focus on refinement of the elements present there as well as interface and level complexity/flow.The first update, currently planned for late March/early April, will add the following to the game:
- One full singleplayer level from the main campaign
- One new Challenge Mode level, Hive
- A new missile, Nova
- Top 25 personal scores on leaderboards (in additional to Steam world-wide and friends)
We plan to do a significant update to the game every 3-4 weeks of similar size, with some smaller updates to address bugs and player feedback. Much of the story content will be held back for the full game release, but by the end of Early Access, Overload will feature:
