Our brave komrades, the Sovietborgs, successfully complete their mission and proceed to the next destination: a place once called Spain, before the nuclear w... that is, before liberation! 💀

- Oh dear, that komrade doesn't look too healthy.
- Consequences of free thinking, no doubt!

The Cold War is over. The world is a nuclear wasteland. 💀 But some territories still resist liberation. New mutant lifeforms emerge, product of radiation and free thinking. 💥

Just a tiny part of the futuro intro, that will also be featured in the trailer:

The West has fallen. The red star flag rises around the world. Supreme intelligence Tovarishch-Prime is pleased.

Fear not, rebels from the capitalist territories. The Sovietborgs will soon free you from your freedom.

The Soviet people will prevail.
The Soviet people stand strong.
The Soviet people found voice. 💥 Adam Koralik's voice, to be precise.

We released a shorter, gameplay-focused trailer a few days ago:

Also...! We love Sega's history in Brazil and we want Brazilian Mega Drive fans to help us write ours! So we're now offering a Brazil-exclusive edition of Sovietborgs, manufactured and shipped locally to avoid additional taxes (as we're aware of the suffocating tax situation they're under, particularly when buying internationally).



Our colleague Gabriel Pyron, who helped us improve the graphics for the first stage and the characters, goes into detail in his live video (in Portuguese and English):
