Indie game developer and publisher Ocean Drive Studio confirmed they will release a Steam Next Fest demo for Blackout Protocol before it goes into Early Access. If you haven't seen this particular game yet, this is a top-down co-op shooter that's been merged with persistent roguelite elements, keeping you on your toes almost every minute as you attempt to clear everything in your path. You'll be able to team up with two friends and delve into the depths of a top-secret research facility, which happens to be taken over with all kinds of horrors from beyond our stars and from our nightmares. Will you be able to take control back or be swarmed to death? You can check out the latest trailer below, as well as info of what the game will be releasing below.
