Republique Remastered Coming to PC and Mac

Indie studio Camouflage has announced today that its critically acclaimed stealth adventure for the iOS Republique is being remastered for the PC and Mac. The game is set for release as Republique Remastered on February 26 through Steam, GOG, and the Humble Store. The game has been rebuilt from the ground up in Unity 5, and features Episode 1: Exordium, Episode 2: Metamorphosis, and Episode 3: ones and Zeroes in both deluxe and standard editions.

In the game, players assist a character named Hope, a desparate young woman struggling to escape from an Orwellian state. Using a stolen phone, Hope contacts the player and asks them to hack into the nation’s surveillance system, assume control, and guide her out of the clutches of the ever present OVerseer. 

Republique Remastered is the first fully commercial title to be developed in Unity 5, using the engine as for multiplatform development. 

“Ever since we committed to doing a desktop version of République, we’ve been haunted by the task for delivering something truly special for PC players,” says Ryan Payton, designer at Camouflaj. “When we got a glimpse at the next iteration of Unity we realized that this was the answer — beyond redesigning the game’s controls and UI for desktop, we’ve completely gutted all the game’s art, rebuilding everything using Unity 5’s cutting-edge graphical features. The result is something you have to see to believe.”
