Slitherine and Black Lab Games have announced that their new title Battlestar Galactica: Deadlock, based on the award winning sci-fi series, will be released this summer on the Xbox One, Playstation 4 and PC. A brand new trailer has been released to celebrate the announcement, and we have it for you below…

Battlestar Galactica: Deadlock is a strategy game that will see players transported to the time of the First Cylon War in order to defend the Twelve Colonies. Players will be required to build huge fleets to defend the colonies from the large variety of ships available including the Manticore corvette and the mighty Jupiter class Battlestar. Viper squadrons and Raptor scouts will also be available as to use as the fleet engages Cylon Raiders and Basestars.

Players will be able to command their fleet from the bridge of the Daidalos shipyard and view intense tactical space battles in full 3D and with 4K supported environments for those with 4K capabilities.

For those who like a spot of multiplayer action, Battlestar Galactica: Deadlock will also feature 1v1 battles.

“Battlestar Galactica Deadlock is one of the most exciting projects we have ever worked on”, said JD McNeil, Chairman of the Slitherine group. “The Battlestar Galactica universe has an incredibly loyal following and very high expectations. As a publisher, we understand what it means to work on a project that has to please a specific audience while delivering a deep strategic experience”.

Battlestar Galactica: Deadlock will be available this summer on the XBox One, Playstation 4 and PC.
