We've received clearance to talk about it, so I'd like to be the first to tell our community that our PC release will be available via Steam and Impulse!

Our guys are currently working on getting a number of the really nifty features both from Steam and Impulse implemented so that we can deliver the best possible multiplayer experience. The team are also taking one last look as far as what new features we plan to include.

The list is short right now, though because of Steam and Impulse you'll definitely be seeing achievements and leaderboards, as well as a new system of map-specific challenges that award "badges." Endless mode is still in the works and will be toyed around with mechanically before we make a call, and there has been some talk of an in-game "encyclopedia" with full disclosure of damage stats and some lore! Endless mode and the encyclopedia aren't final yet, but reading all of our reviews and listening to the players, those two features seem to us to be logical inclusions.

From the whole Cadenza team, happy new year, and we look forward to seeing you in beta!

Exciting times, people. Nice work.

A couple of quick questions, once it's ready, do us early adopters of the 360 version get to help beta and teach newcomers the ins and outs of the game?
Also, do any of us get discounts for owning it on 360 who plan to also buy the PC version?

Edit: I mentioned you guys a day ago on Kotaku: http://kotaku.com/5466512/the-best-pc-m ... e#comments

The PC version will be full price, unfortunately. That said, there may be some beta opportunities in the next couple of weeks. I know the guys would like to do something nice for the fans that have been so enthusiastic. I don't know what yet, but soon enough!

We're within days of our content complete date, after which we'll have some in-house QA and then start getting it onto more machines. Keep checking in, we'll have more frequent updates as we get further along.
