Anomaly 2
Tower defense is a well worn genre. There are fantastic tweaks and twists on the concept (Plants vs. Zombies and Sanctum come to mind), but none is as bold as 11 bit studios' Anomaly series.
Putting players in the role of attackers rather than stationary towers creates an experience that feels fresh and different. The sequel to Anomaly: Warzone Earth and its expansion Anomaly: Korea were both well received. The full sequel, Anomaly 2, professes to include more of the gameplay fans crave and new multiplayer that puts one player in the traditional defender role.
The developer is offering two special deals for those interested in pre-ordering. Not only can customers get 10% off the standard $14.99 asking price, but those that purchase directly from 11 bit studios will get a second copy to give to a friend.
We have the release trailer below (a cutscene featuring a new, morphing unit). Anomaly 2 arrives on May 15, 2013 for PC, Mac, and Linux.
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.
