Lo-Fi Games announces that Kenshi is now in the beta phase on Steam, and various updates mark this new phase in the early access squad-based RPG. This post has details on what's been added to the game, and outlines plans to gradually open up new areas of the expanded game map, and this trailer shows off the new version 0.90 beta. Word is: "Kenshi is a free-roaming squad based RPG with emphasis on open-ended sandbox gameplay features rather than a linear story. You can be a trader, a thief, a rebel, a warlord, an adventurer, a farmer, a slave, or just food for the cannibals! Build a safe house, research new equipment, craft new gear and train your men from puny victims to fearless warriors - with skill, luck and talent, you might even bring them home alive! The updated BETA introduces one of the largest single-player world maps ever to be offered in an RPG. Initially, only restricted areas will be accessible, and other areas of the map become available in future updates to the game."
