Update: In a stunning late surge, République has reached its $500,000 funding goal. Of course, you can still visit the game's Kickstarter page to donate even more before the drive closes later today.

---------------------------------------

After countless requests from gamers supporting the Kickstarter-backed iOS project République, the developers have announced they will also be working on PC and Mac versions of the game.

In a press release, developers Camouflaj and Logan stated that the newly-announced versions will not be simple ports of the iOS game, but will "feature new gameplay, controls, and story elements custom-tailored to the unique strengths of the PC and Mac platforms."

République promises to blend stealth, action, and storytelling into one compelling package. The Kickstarter currently stands at $97,000 of its $500,000 goal, with 14 days left in the drive.

Hopefully the newly announced platforms will attract more donators to the project. To learn more about République, read our interview with the game's director Ryan Payton.

>kickstarter I'm tired of that all ready. Wasteland 2 and Republique are the only worthwhile titles as of now.

The picture alone makes me want to donate...
by Jojonny17 Thursday, April 26, 2012 at 05:52 PM

I'm very intrigued by this game.

Hmm, stealth, action, and story blended together, huh? Don't know about anybody else but that sounds alot like Dishonored to me. Still, this has definitely piqued my interest.
by Idlehands Thursday, April 26, 2012 at 05:57 PM

Interested,glad they are making this available to more systems.Hope they reach there goal amount.
by Boyzby Thursday, April 26, 2012 at 05:59 PM

I will be eagerly awaiting for it to release on PC then. ^_^
by UndKeineEier Thursday, April 26, 2012 at 06:02 PM

Kinda sucks for the developer. They wanted to make this game as an innovative mobile game, now they have to make 2 games and they'll compromise somewhat on the mobile version so that both systems get a game similar enough that PC and Mac players won't be upset by a dumbed down version of the ios version or vice versa
by Max Thursday, April 26, 2012 at 06:11 PM

I'll be waiting for you

So many Kickstarters...
by Ezio Auditore Da Firenze Thursday, April 26, 2012 at 06:21 PM

Great news, I am really curious about this game and I prefer a pc version over an ios one any day.
by LGAR Thursday, April 26, 2012 at 06:29 PM

Wow I am actually really glad its coming to Mac too. I wouldn't mind starting to get a few games here and there for mine :)
by Walter Mellin Thursday, April 26, 2012 at 07:18 PM

initially sounded neat until that iOS trash. PC announcement has certainly gotten my attention and maybe my money. well played, Camouflaj (i hate that name).
by Meta77 Thursday, April 26, 2012 at 09:25 PM

interesting
by Ink Architect Thursday, April 26, 2012 at 09:54 PM

Out of curiosity, what happens to all the pledged money if they don't reach the $500,000 mark?
by Meta77 Thursday, April 26, 2012 at 09:58 PM

lo
by Colton Friday, April 27, 2012 at 09:28 AM

So what happens to the money if they don't reach their goal?
by Tyrax Lightning Friday, April 27, 2012 at 12:35 PM

WOOT!!! I wish this game luck at succeeding at getting born! If it makes it, I will eyeball the PC Version! & that's saying something, for i'm not a tough bugger at Stealth Games. :)

I wish I had any money to contribute to this Project. :(
