VertalStrike is Now Officially Released

We are proud to officially announce that VertalStrike is now fully released on Steam and available to play.

After an intense period of development, testing, and constant iteration, the game is no longer in a “Coming Soon” state. This is not an Early Access launch. This is the full release of the game as a complete experience, and players can jump in and play right now.

VertalStrike is a fast-paced low-poly FPS built with a focus on responsive gameplay, clean visuals, and straightforward but skill-based combat. From the beginning, the goal was to create something that feels immediate and satisfying to play, while still offering room for improvement and mastery over time.

At launch, the game includes multiple maps, a growing selection of weapons, and core gameplay systems designed to deliver a smooth and engaging experience. Every part of the game has been shaped through iteration and hands-on development, with attention given to how the game feels moment-to-moment.

This project has largely been created by a single developer, which made the process both challenging and demanding. Building a game from the ground up involves solving problems across design, programming, visuals, and overall direction, often all at once. It requires persistence, time, and a strong belief in the project.

During the 17 days when VertalStrike was in the Coming Soon phase, the game gathered around 100 wishlists. While that number may seem small in the context of large releases, it represents real people who showed interest early on. That support played an important role in reaching this point.

We genuinely appreciate everyone who followed the development, visited the store page, or added the game to their wishlist. Your support has had a direct impact on making this release possible.

Even though the game is now officially released, development does not stop here. Future updates, improvements, and additional content are already planned. Feedback from players will be an important part of shaping what comes next and refining the experience further.

VertalStrike is now available on Steam.

You can play the game starting today.
