Just about two weeks ago Mercurysteam, the indie developer best known for their work on the Castlevania Lord of Shadows series and Metroid: Samus Returns, announced that their own IP, Raiders of the Broken Planet, would be making the transition to a Free-to-play title August 23. This wasn’t a simple flipping of a switch either as, according to the devs, the game would be undertaking a complete rebranding and would be launching as Spacelords.
