Wube Software's initial release, the strategy game got its 1.0 update today, bringing it out of its lengthy early access stretch. To honour the occasion, the developers have released a short but sweet launch trailer for the now complete game.
Factorio's release schedule has been a somewhat rocky one for the team. It was originally due to delayed until November. This whole situation was no doubt a stressful one for the team.
The launch trailer attempts to capture the story of the game's development in just 45 seconds, which is almost as impressive as Wube's work on the game itself.

As well as the trailer, Wube Software also put out an announcement on Steam in which it thanked everyone who helped with the game's development and those who'd played the game and "allowed all of this to happen". The announcement also explains that most of the game's content was already included in the 0.18 update. However, Wube has added a small treat in the latest update in the form of a drivable vehicle kitted-out with a built-in radar and rocket launchers.
Factorio has gained a fair amount of praise since its 2016 launch, as shown by its 'overwhelmingly positive' Steam reviews, and it even made our list of the best management games on PC. It has a free demo available if you'd like to try the game out for yourself. Check out the Steam page here.
