The sci-fi MMO aims to reach vast exposure, far beyond its intended audience

The Repopulation Kickstarter and Greenlight campaigns have both launched, in an effort to support the developer's efforts and gauge general interest in the upcoming game.

The Repopulation is a sci-fi massively multiplayer role-playing game that seeks to offer its players a vast sandbox experience, similar to those encountered in Star Wars Galaxies and Ultima Online, integrating modern innovations in their successful formulas.

The next 4 weeks will see sustained efforts to gain exposure outside the game's targeted audience, with The Repopulation's Kickstarter campaign meant to primarily focus on stretch goals. The extra funding will allow the developer to better allocate resources and personnel to add the listed features without impacting the scheduled release date.

The Repopulation Greenlight Campaign provides a means for the developer to receive feedback and will lead to the final game being distributed through the Steam digital distribution platform, while also allowing for those interested in the game, but unable to contribute through Kickstarter, to manifest their support through voting.
