GDC SAN FRANCISCO – March 9, 2012 – Paradox Interactive and Radioactive Software today announced that it will support the mod community with its forthcoming game, Gettysburg: Armored Warfare through an editor and full toolset to be shared via Steam Workshop. The hybrid multiplayer Third-Person Shooter (TPS)/Real-Time Strategy (RTS) game brings fast paced action to the PC in an alternative reality version of the American Civil War. Developer Danny Green will work to enable the community to utilize the game’s tools and Steam Workshop to build and release mods based on the game’s powerful Radioactive Engine.
“My producer [Gordon Van Dyke - Paradox] and I share a strong commitment and love for the modding community, my goal is to make Gettysburg: Armored Warfare a great platform to create gamers dream add-ons and scenarios,” said CEO & Lead Programmer Danny Green. “I’m excited to see how far they can take it”, he continued.
