An exciting new look has been provided by game developer Astragon for their upcoming title Drone Swarm. To build hype for the strategy RTS game's impending launch later this year, the company has launched a set of videos that provide a deeper look at the title and what makes it both exciting and different from other PC games.
Drone Swarm marks the second collaboration between Astragon and stillalive studios, following their success with the Bus Simulator franchise. The game was featured from June 9th to June 14th on Steam as a part of the Steam Game Festival Summer Edition.
Players are able to control up to 32,000 drones in real-time in this strategy-driven game. Since that may not be an easy thing to picture, Astragon has released a video showing off gameplay footage from Drone Swarm so that gamers have a better idea of what they're getting themselves into.
In addition to the exciting gameplay footage reveal video released by Astragon, the company has also launched the first installment of Developer Diaries, which provides a behind the scenes look at the gameplay aspects of Drone Swarm, as well as what sets the title apart from other games.

Earth is dying... we must find a new home.
Control 32000 space-drones in this real-time swarm-strategy game. With their help, you must defend your mothership against alien attacks: build a shield wall using the drones by drawing a defensive formation to intercept any shots of your opponents. While defending the Argo is very important, so is engaging the enemies by drawing attack paths, using physical maneuvers, or utilizing the environment to destroy their ships.
You are mankind’s last hope of survival.
Drone Swarm is planned for a late 2020 release.
