The game’s name is also the team’s. This is not making our job any easier…

So Team GRIT, a new game development and publishing studio established by industry veterans has announced a Wild West battle royale game, which will first launch in Steam Early Access this Spring, followed by a proper launch by September.

Here’s the game’s overview from its Steam page

Here is an overview of the game, via its Steam page: „This town ain’t big enough for the two of us. It surely ain’t big enough for all 100. Ride or die in the ultimate wild west battle royale, where there’s more to winning than aiming true. Saddle up and ride across town, building the best poker hand from found weapons to make a killing. Grab the best shooter to-hand and gun your way to infamy on the new frontier. Explore the towns, oil fields and plains of the untamed west as you try to hitch a ride on the last man alive train. But hold on to your 10-gallon hat – it’ll protect you as you’re shootin’ up a storm! If a gunslinger shoots you down, keep your hat on – a 1v1 wild west showdown could put you back in the game if you got a quick draw.

[…] Saddle a trusty horse and venture across the frontier. Battle 99 other cowboys in solo, duo, and squad gunfights. […] Look for weapons that make all-in poker hands to gain special perks. Gather specific hands to craft different styles of play. There are advantages and tradeoffs to be made depending on the cards you’re collecting – will you go all-in on gunslinging, focus on patching up your wounds after each skirmish, or find some other winning combination? […] Bond with your horse, riding and controlling your trusty steed with multiple speeds. Feeling lazy? Use the equine beast o’ burden as extra inventory. Horses are a great way to stay mobile, escape the all-consuming calamity storm, and fire on the go. If you’re feeling daring and have the gumption, steal your foe’s horse and ride like the wind.

[…] Over 20 weapons and a whole host of cowboy equipment are there to help you and yours to the top of the gunslinger rankings. Weapons are projectile-based, so you’ll need to be a crack shot, lead targets, and account for gravity. […] Steal loot and a seat on the last train outta town. Take charge and use the locomotive to stay inside the battle royale ring,” Team GRIT wrote.

We have to ask: what will make this game stand out from the rest…?
