<p>Digital Sun, the studio behind <a href=”https://www.gameinformer.com/games/moonlighter/b/playstation4/archive/2018/05/31/moonlighter-review-gameinformer.aspx”>Moonlighter</a> and <a href=”https://www.gameinformer.com/2023/03/07/the-mageseeker-a-league-of-legends-story-gets-april-release-date”>The Mageseeker: A League of Legends Story</a>, has announced its city-building RTS, Cataclismo, is coming in July.</p>
<p>Cataclismo was first revealed last year and was successfully crowdfunded via Kickstarter. It blends real-time strategy with tower defense. Set in a world devastated by an event known as the Cataclismo, you must rebuild. During the day, this means you’ll gather resources to construct fortresses brick-by-brick in a Lego-like fashion, along with placing soldiers and traps. Once night arrives, waves of monsters assault your stronghold, and you must repel them.</p>

<p>The game boasts realistic physics simulations (e.g., your strongholds collapse in a realistic manner, including falling debris that can squash enemies), and you can upgrade your fortress with improved building elements, troops, and more. In addition to a 30-hour story-driven single-player campaign, Cataclismo features a creative mode, a wave-based survival mode, and a battle-focused skirmish mode. </p>
<p>Cataclismo launches on July 18 for PC, and has a free Steam demo available now. </p>
