Petroglyph Games continues its focus on the real-time strategy subgenre with the announcement of Grey Goo, a new real-time strategy game that promises to focus on combat instead of micromanagement.
Little is known of the game’s plot (beyond the title’s reference to the theoretical apocalypse scenario brought about by endlessly replicating nanomachines), but Grey Goo will feature three unique factions as well as “epic” units for each. Additionally, the game features adaptive AI “based on real-world Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) concepts,” which the developer claims should give the game “near-infinite replay value.”
Grey Goo is slated for release on Steam this Fall. More details can be found on the game’s website,
