Leeuwarden / The Netherlands, April 8th, 2020: Triangle Studios and Convoy Games are proud to announce their FTL and Mad Max inspired post-apocalyptic adventure, Convoy: A Tactical Roguelike, is releasing today on consoles. Even those who’ve already conquered the road have a reason to return, in the form of brand-new story lines and vehicles.
Take the wheel as you drive a weaponized convoy across a deadly wasteland that changes with every run, engaging with enemies in high-speed tactical combat as you race down the highway. In your first hour of play you will fight over scrap parts, probably lose a car because you forgot that a rock was coming, feel good about upgrading your vehicles and get tired of the description of sand in our many text based dialogues. Also you will probably not make it out alive on your first run, so expect to return to this desert wasteland time and again.
Convoy: A Tactical Roguelike is available now on Nintendo Switch, Playstation 4, and Xbox One for $14.99 USD, and is still available on PC via Steam as well.
