«In addition to the single player AI game mode we plan to add several other components over the next months:

- A properly working network queue system and dedicated servers for online battles
- Different game modes with different rule sets. Some game modes might even be story driven.
- An overall better AI to fight against in single player mode
- More visual art and an overall more polished look

Some of these features may already be added during early access for testing purposes.»
