SOS Is Now Available In Early Access
Hot off the heels of a successful beta last month, Outpost Games has released its streaming-centric survival sim in Early Access on Steam today.
SOS tasks 16 players with finding an ancient relic on a monster-ridden island, and then escaping via a rescue helicopter. Teaming up with other players is imperative if you want to survive the island's deadly beasts, but with only three seats available in the rescue chopper, you'll need to choose your friends wisely.
Outpost Games is developing SOS to be as fun to watch as it is to play, and is incorporating its own Hero streaming feature to maximize interactions between game participants and the audience. Outpost Games is hoping to channel the alliances and backstabbing of the gameshow Survivor, putting the personalities of streamers front and center, which is certainly evident in the game's new trailer.
Interested players can check out SOS in Early Access right now.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
