Cleared Hot - Modern Desert Strike/Jungle Strike

[Jester86]

I am sure many of us are at a certain age where we played Desert Strike/Jungle Strike as a child, I know I did on Gameboy and SNES.

Microprose have taken on "Cleared Hot" to distribute at some point in 2025 which is a modern interpretation.

The demo was released on 6th June on Steam. So go and give it a go, I love it!

it's very good and very well done! Hopefully it'll be around £25-£30 and not full price £45-£50.

Glad I am not the only one to have played it!

Yes I am hoping for around the £25 mark. Lurking on the Discord server getting snippets of information like the Airwolf helicopter, the Bell 222, will be in the game. Feel quite excited to play the final version.

There's going to be some Drone missions too apparently. Blue Thunder would be cool too!

I got the demo, looking forward to the release version.

I hope one of the gunners is called wild bill.

I remember playing Desert Strike on my Amiga and I could never get past the first mission...I was a child though! Definitely gonna give this a go and see if I'm any better at the age of 33!

They've just announced the Early Access as Nov 20 '25. Looks really good and I will definitely be taking to the skies!

Had desert strike on my mega drive, absolutely loved it, thinking about it I can’t quite believe it’s taken this long for something similar.

Hopefully come to consoles
