RailGods of Hysterra Early Access

Hysterra has broken out, as Early Access to RailGods of Hysterra is now underway for Windows on Steam, beginning a Story Lord-free co-op survival adventure from Digital Vortex Entertainment and Troglobytes Games. In this up to five players must confront Lovecraftian horrors, which can be glimpsed if you train your eyes on the Early Access Launch Trailer. The news is celebrated in this post, which discusses what to expect right now, while also laying out a roadmap (railmap?) of what to expect between now and an official launch at a to be determined date. Here's word:

In RailGods of Hysterra, the world has been devastated by the arrival of the Great Old Ones –cosmic beings of unimaginable power. As a Dreamer, awoken from the Dreamlands and inseparably bound to your RailGod, you must survive in a reality twisted by madness. Shuttle between the last outposts while exploring gloomy, mysterious landscapes haunted by sinister cultists and nightmarish creatures inspired by Lovecraft's narrative universe.
