Phoenix Point, the upcoming strategy game from XCOM creator Julian Gollop, gets a second backer build tomorrow. Last week, developer Snapshot Games announced that Backer Build Two will release on July 3, adding plenty of new features to the turn-based strategy title.
The first of those is the game’s fourth class, the Technician. The new character comes with a deployable turret, as well as a brutal melee attack - he can use the mechanical arms on his back to damage and stun nearby enemies. For a more conventional approach, the Technician can also use his Assault Rifle and grenades.

Phoenix Point Backer Build Two also brings The Armadillo to the game. The new addition is an armored vehicle with a roof-mounted turret, and is the first drivable vehicle to be added to the game. Characters can access it through a rear hatch, and proceed to drive it around the map, although its sheer size means that there will be a few places it can’t reach.
Other features include improved aiming, camera rotation, and updated procedural generation. If you’re a preorder customer already, you should receive an email sometime tomorrow with a unique download link. If you’re not, however, there’s still a way to get your hands on the game.
