Developer New World Interactive has joined Steam's "Early Access" store ($14.99) with Insurgency ($14.99), providing a broader audience of gamers the chance to buy into the intense, tactical first-person shooter at a value price and help shape its development.

Insurgency gamers don’t just play the game in its Alpha phase, they buy into the game’s Beta and completed version too. NWI has formed a direct line of communication between development team and community, enabling both sides to discuss and prototype the game’s design in an iterative process.
