Ah, the noble Tower Defense game. Place thy implements of destruction, and await thy enemies, only for them to be decimated at your very doorstep. Where a patient overlord observes his domain as countless fools flood their pre-determined paths, only to be obliterated by lasers or bullets or telekinetically hurled piles of burning garbage or meteors flung from the very heavens themselves.

Today, developer Hidden Path Entertainment announced their official date for releasing Defense Grid 2 on PC, Mac, Linus, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One! Players can look forward this awesome looking Tower Defense title this coming September 23rd!
Looks like we're getting some advanced tactics from the minds down at Defense Grid 2. This week's new technique: not building your fancy laser towers directly in the path of the encroaching enemy.
