Indie publisher, Stompy Bot Productions, has released its Gear Bay Module for its upcoming title, Heavy Gear Assault. This release also marks the end of closed alpha and a move to Early Access.

This module is the first step towards allowing players unparalleled levels of customization to their mechs or Gears as they are shown in the game. Following on their modular release strategy, the team behind Heavy Gear Assault plan to implement all the features of the game which are released over a series of patches to Early Access Players.

With the move to Early Access, players will no longer be reuired to sign, or be restricted by, the previously reuired confidentiality agreement. Early adopters are now able to share live streams, screenshots, videos, and openly talk about the game.

“We are really excited by this new phase of development. ur backers have been waiting for this day for a long time and have been dying to share their excitement with the world” says John Nguyen, Marketing Director of Stompy Bot.
