Those interested in Ashes of the Singularity should get their ashes over to Steam, where this new DirectX 12 real-time strategy game from Stardock and Oxide has entered the early access stage. They celebrate the news with a new early access developer video with an outline of what the game is about, and this news post has all the details:

A real-time strategy game on a scale never before seen where even the smallest units have diverse, independent weapons systems and every shot fired has its own targeting solution and ballistics model, Ashes of the Singularity explores entirely new and engaging game play fundamentals coupled with jaw-dropping visuals. With literally thousands of units acting independently on screen at the same time, players are introduced to a familiar infrastructure of real-time strategy game play while focusing their attention not on small engagements between a handful of units, but instead waging large-scale wars across multiple simultaneous battlefronts.

The first game to utilize developer Oxide Games’ powerful Nitrous engine, Ashes of the Singularity places the player at the head of a war between a group called the Substrate, led by an AI called Haalee, and all of humanity as they strive to expand further out into the galaxy.
