Save the World From Evil Corporations in M.E.R.C.

Not to be confused with Mercs, the '90s arcade shooter, M.E.R.C. is an entirely different kind of shooter, inspired by classic tactical games like Laser Squad and X-COM. It's the latest title from TinyMob Games, creators of Tiny Realms and it pits you against the corrupt Manta corporation. It comes to Steam Early Access on the 17th of January.

“I was fortunate early in my career to work on the original X-COM series,” said Game Director Jamie Toghill. “I’ve always felt that the real-time play we introduced in the third instalment was a great twist on the genre. With M.E.R.C., we’re combining deep, strategic real-time action with cooperative gameplay for a rich sense of suspense and excitement.”
