Sovietborgs mentioned in this "30 New Sega Genesis & Mega Drive Games in 2025". It won't be out in 2025 though, I'm afraid Shadow Gangs Zero (for the MD, Neo Geo and Dreamcast, too) included as well:

Now, may I have your attention, please.



Sovietborgs is coming to Kickstarter Q1 2025.

Besides the regular editions (including blue PAL), we're considering a super limited, KS exclusive one with different artwork, packed with a super limited, KS exclusive PAL reprint of Xenocider (with different artwork too).

Nothing is decided yet but... you know, maybe

We'll be back shortly... https://retrosumus.com

I'm detecting some press freedom here, tovarisch. Maybe I'll need to consult with your commanding officer.



Thanks to Marc Jowett for featuring Sovietborgs in Pixel Addict Magazine #26!

What's Sovietborgs all about? Wait, what was Xenocider about again? And what's our whole little team about, by the way?

Thanks to Debug Magazine for giving us the opportunity to spread our regime's propaganda!

See you soon on Kickstarter, tovarisch.
