SLAM TANK Passes 50,000 Steam Wishlist Adds In Five Days
Wishlist counts are the first public read on a Steam game before launch, and 50,000 in five days gives Next Stage a measurable signal for a title that has only been announced, not dated.
Reporting from 1 source: Game Spark.
Next Stage's close-combat tank action game SLAM TANK passed 50,000 wishlist adds in the five days since its Steam store page opened. Players pick one of three tank types and fight AI-controlled machines, using acceleration pads, jump pads, drifting and aerial tricks. The development team released a message saying they will work with all their strength on the game, which is planned for release on Steam for PC.
The Steam store page for SLAM TANK opened five days before the 50,000 figure was announced, which makes the wishlist count the first demand signal for a game with no release date attached. The pitch is deliberately narrow: tanks fighting at close range rather than at distance. Players swing the gun barrel and ram with the hull, and pick one of three tank types with different combat styles before heading out against AI-controlled machines. Movement options include acceleration pads, jump pads, drifting and aerial tricks, with combo attacks as the damage route against the AI army.
