MicroProse to Publish Gunship: Origins, a New Combat Helicopter Experience

MicroProse is proud to announce that it will publish Gunship: Origins, a new combat helicopter game developed by indie studio Jammin Games that places players in the cockpit of some of the world’s most iconic military rotorcraft. Designed as a modern combat helicopter experience, the game combines dynamic missions, cooperative multiplayer, and accessible yet rewarding flight mechanics.

Watch the publishing announcement here

Take the Pilot Seat

In Gunship: Origins, players step into the role of a U.S. Army helicopter pilot operating in a contested battlefield filled with armored vehicles, missile batteries, convoys, and fortified enemy positions.

Flying iconic helicopters such as the AH-64 Apache, AH-1 Cobra/Viper, and UH-60 Blackhawk, players must plan their approach, use terrain to avoid enemy defenses, and strike quickly before the enemy can respond.

Dynamic Combat Missions

Missions in Gunship: Origins are dynamically generated ensuring that each sortie presents new tactical challenges. Players may be tasked with destroying armored columns, escorting transport helicopters into hostile landing zones, intercepting enemy convoys, or striking high-value targets deep behind enemy lines.

Careful planning, teamwork, and quick decision-making are critical to completing objectives and surviving the battlefield.

Fly Solo or With Friends

Players can take on missions alone or join forces in cooperative multiplayer with up to eight players. Friends can occupy pilot and copilot/gunner seats within the same helicopter or coordinate as a multi-aircraft flight to complete complex mission objectives together.

AI wingmen can also assist in missions, allowing players to direct their flight and execute coordinated attacks against enemy forces.



Rise Through the Ranks

Beginning as a Warrant Officer Candidate, players progress through training and combat missions to earn promotions through the U.S. Army officer ranks.

Along the way, pilots can earn authentic military medals and awards that reflect their accomplishments and experience on the battlefield.

Accessible and Cross-Platform

Gunship: Origins is designed to be approachable for newcomers while offering depth for experienced players. Helicopters are easy to learn to fly, but mastering combat tactics and mission coordination will require skill and experience.

The game supports a variety of control setups-from keyboard and mouse to advanced flight hardware-and is optimized to run smoothly across a wide range of systems.

Gunship: Origins will support Windows, macOS, Linux, and Steam Deck.


Key Features

  • Fly iconic helicopters including the AH-64 Apache, AH-1 Cobra/Viper, and UH-60 Blackhawk
  • Dynamic mission generation with a wide variety of combat objectives
  • Single-player and cooperative multiplayer with up to 8 players
  • Pilot career progression with ranks, promotions, medals, and awards
  • Coordinate attacks with either AI or human wingmen
  • Terrain-based tactics using real-world terrain data

Demo for Roguelite board-builder Beatrix Now Live on Steam

Indie developer and publisher Tambù Digital has unveiled the first playable demo for its upcoming roguelite board-builder Beatrix, now available on PC via Steam. Launching later this year, Beatrix is a hauntingly stylised strategy experience where positioning is power and your ability to craft a board-wide strategy determines the fate of a fractured underworld.

Inspired by the spatial logic play, Beatrix transforms traditional deckbuilding into a deep board-build experience played across a shifting battlefield. As the enigmatic Beatrix, players descend through the Circles of Hell to uncover a rotting anomaly threatening the Abyss itself. By deploying Canons, powerful field effects that rewrite the rules of the grid, and mastering positional combat, every move can reshape the board and turn the tide of battle.

Will you restore balance to the underworld or be consumed by the corruption spreading through its frozen heart?

Enter Limbo in the First Playable Demo

The newly released demo plunges players into the first Circle of Hell – Limbo, where they will learn the fundamentals of Beatrix’s strategic tarot combat while uncovering the first threads of the game’s dark narrative.

During the demo run, players will encounter the twisted denizens of Limbo and ultimately challenge Charon, the Custos Limbi, in a climactic boss battle.

The demo includes:

  • 35 Canons – board-altering abilities applied at the start of battle
  • 22 Major Arcana Tarot Cards – core cards played during combat
  • 15 Relics with unique abilities
  • 3 Enemy Types and 2 Elite Variants
  • 1 Boss Encounter – Charon
  • 3 Narrative Events shaping your descent

This first taste of Beatrix introduces players to its tactical board control mechanics, evolving deck systems, and the ominous world that lies deeper within the Circles of Hell.
 
Watch the Beatrix demo announcement trailer here

About Beatrix

Hell has descended into unbridled chaos. As Beatrix, you are summoned to the Circles of Hell to uncover a mysterious anomaly rotting the afterlife itself. To restore order, or dismantle it entirely, you must master the laws of the grid, craft a lethal build of Canons, powerful effects that reshape the battlefield, and survive a perilous descent into the frozen heart of Treachery.  

Key Features

  • Board-Wide Strategy – Enhance your hand with the Canon System. Deploy persistent field effects that automate your strategy and redefine the rules of the grid.
  • Positional Grid Combat – A high-stakes “Surround and Flip” system inspired by Triple Triad and Othello. Encircle enemies to trigger a Card Clash, testing your Potentia to seize control of their units.
  • Verdict & Growth – You are the judge. Defeat the Custos of Hell and pass sentence to unlock new build possibilities and carve your path through the underworld.
  • Diverse Starting Archetypes – Choose your Genius to anchor each run, then layer rare Relics, Canons, and Tarots to create devastating chain reactions.
  • Infinite Replayability – With 22 evolving Arcana cards and over 100 Canons and Relics to discover, every descent presents a new puzzle of spatial strategy and board optimisation.
  • A Visceral, Reactive Inferno – Explore the Circles of Hell in a dark, eerie aesthetic. Navigate story-driven encounters and environmental hazards that shape your journey toward multiple narrative endings.

Begin the Descent

The Beatrix demo is available to download now on Steam, giving players their first chance to experience its dark tactical combat and atmospheric world.

Fans can add Beatrix to their Steam Wishlist to stay up to date as development progresses toward the full release later this year.

Independent studio Mudita Games had released BARDA in Early Access on Steam today as part of the TurnBasedThursdayFest 2026.

BARDA is available now in Early Access on Steam.
