Steam now offers early access to Breach & Clear: Deadline, the zombie-infested follow-up to the top-down tactical action in the original Breach & Clear. A look at the game can be found in an early access announcement trailer, and attendees of this weekends Penny Arcade Expo South can play it in the Gambitious and Devolver booth. A full launch is planned this spring, and in the meantime, here's word on early access:

Breach & Clear: Deadline drops players into urban decay as an infection is quickly engulfing the city. As the leader of an elite tactical squad, you must find the source of the infection and stop it before it gets out of hand. Lead your team into a massive, complex inner-city, strategize on the fly against the hordes you'll encounter and try to stay alive using creative combinations of what resources you have.

Released last summer in early alpha form to select testers, developers have implemented a plethora of player feedback into the Early Access version, including daily leaderboards for competitive players, massive additions to the open world areas, new enemies, and dozens of side quests allowing you to level up, gain experience, and a variety of new weapons.
