Wasteland 2 gets release date

21 May 2014

Post-apocalyptic role-playing game Wasteland 2 will be released in August 2014, InXile has announced.

Wasteland 2 is a sequel to the original Wasteland, which was released in 1988. Its modern successor was successfully funded on Kickstarter in 2012 and is available to play as an Early Access title.

Game designer Brian Fargo said feedback from the beta trial has been beneficial, and he’s “proud of the way Wasteland 2 is shaping up”.

“The scope of the game is immense with a word count that is greater than The Lord of the Rings novels and a solid 50 hour+ game experience that has diversity from beginning to end. My goal has been to over deliver on our backer’s expectations for Wasteland 2,” said Fargo.

“But we are not yet in full lock-down, it is important for us to stay flexible for iterations as we keep learning from the backer beta.”

Wasteland 2 is being developed for Linux, Mac, and Windows PC.
