Breach & Clear has seen some significant growth, enough for Gun Media and Mighty Rabbit Studios to take the series from its mobile origins to PC with the follow-up, Breach & Clear: Deadline. The strategy RPG hit Steam Early Access in late January and is looking to find its footing before a full release. To check on the game's progress, Shacknews spoke to designer Randy Greenback.

Greenback discusses the Deadline's inspiration from games like Fallout Tactics and XCOM and talks about the shift to an open world. Other topics include customization, tactical options, and the various enemy types that players can expect to see in this new adventure.

Check out the full interview below.

        I did! Briefly though, Randy explained the basics and I fought maybe three mobs of zombies then we did the interview.

        Strategy games like this are my peanut butter and fucking jam so I was enjoying it a lot. I would like to see gameplay deeper into the game. It was mostly basic mobs lurching along towards you. The other enemy types he was explaining sound pretty fucking metal, especially the brood mother thingy.
