EARTH LIBERATION – AN OLD-SCHOOL DYNAMIC RTS GAME NOW ON STEAM EARLY ACCESS
FACE THE REPTILIAN THREAT AND SAVE OUR PLANET IN A GAME THAT LOOKS AND FEELS LIKE A PASSIONATE LOVE LETTER TO STARCRAFT AND OTHER RTS GOLDEN CLASSICS
Moscow, December 15, 2016 – This winter day marks the beginning of an epic struggle for humanity’s survival. Earth Liberation, by PoRovoz studios hits Steam Early Access today bringing back the best that the RTS golden classics had to offer in one action-packed game. The game is now available on Steam Early Access for Windows and Mac OS X. The game is 20% off for the first week after the launch, until December 22, 2016.
Key features:
- A dynamic modern RTS that captures the spirit of the classics of the golden era of PC gaming, such as StarCraft 1 or Command & Conquer
- Streamlined, fast-paced gameplay focused on challenge and action
- A rich Sci-Fi background story explicating the merciless invasion of reptilian creatures calling themselves Khrasters
- 7 challenging missions to complete, with many more to come
“How Earth Liberation came to be? We love RTS games and play them since we were kids,” – explains Vladimir, co-founder at PoRovoz Studios. “We took the parts that we think made them fun: straightforward economy, rapid decision-making, constant enemy advancement, well balanced unit power. Then we made it into one, streamlined and exciting game. We wanted it to be more than just a game, however – in our imagination it has already become a living, story-rich universe. Earth Liberation features a story that kept on growing as we were making progress with the game, and will be growing even further as our development process continues. For that reason, we’re giving away a lore-filled novel in the form of an audiobook and e-book to everyone who buys the game”.

About PoRovoz Studios:
PoRovoz Studios was founded by Vladimir Polozkov and Nikolai Rovneiko who have been friends for the last three decades, and for the last two - huge RTS worshipers. They never dreamed of careers in game development, but while becoming successful in finance and the oil and gas sector, there was a yearning for something more, something from their past. Having no gamedev background and lead only by their passion, these two insane dreamers put their careers on hold and began working on Earth Liberation.
