Ops

The release date for Ops is July 19, 2026, launching exclusively for PC. Developed by actual Very Large Array operators, this title tasks you with defending rural New Mexico using a massive energy weapon disguised as a radio telescope.

This is a fast-paced arcade shooter where your primary goal is protecting local cattle from extraterrestrial abduction and predatory chupacabras.
