Code Name S.T.E.A.M. - Logo

With all the hype about the upcoming Zelda, and the current Smash Bros, and Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker, it’s been a good last couple of weeks for Nintendo. Sadly, because of all this Nintendo awesomeness, some games have been slipping through the cracks and weren’t able to get on the hype train because of it.

Specifically, I am referring to the wonderfully bizarre Code Name: S.T.E.A.M., a turn based strategy game where you play as an international team of agents lead by Abraham Lincoln to defend Earth from an alien invasion. The game looks fun and strange and is not getting nearly the hype I think it deserves.

Some new information was revealed on it though at last night’s Game Awards. Specifically, we got to see a bit of the game’s multiplayer in the form of a trailer released by Nintendo. Check it out:

So, how does it look? I’m pretty excited for it, as it looks just like the kind of bizarre game I love. We’d love to hear what you think of it though, so let us know in the comments!
