Not many small indie projects have the potential and interests within the gaming community that even the ruling giants of the game industry are roused.

Not yet much details about “The Source” were published to the community interests, but developer yetanotherIndie shared some beautiful screenshots on their twitter account and other communities.
Even with the rising popularity and market potential, yetanotherIndie still continue to keep as much details about “The Source” in secret.
But a truly and well recognized fact about the game: the graphics! Almost realistic graphic design and gameplay mechanics convince that yetanotherIndie must not hide behind some of the bigger publisher or developers of the video game community.
According to their own website and other sources, the project is led by a collective of five heads, some of them also working full-time for big and well-known publishers or developer studios .

On an earlier interview of yetanotherIndie’s lead-developer, the game is inspired by former real soldiers and their background stories and will have both, a vast and atmospheric singleplayer campaign and different multiplayer modes focused on realistic gameplay.
As announced, “The Source” will be mainly published for PC target-systems running with Windows or Linux, but a possible further release of “The Source” for consoles like Xbox and PlayStation 4 wasn’t denied from yetanotherIndie.
