SteamWorld Heist Gets Some New Content And Award Nominations

Image & Form released their smash hit SteamWorld Heist onto Nintendo 3DS last year and while they are very busy working on new content and fixes for the game, along with bringing the game to new platforms this year, they have recently been nominated for three awards at the Nordic Game Awards.

- Nordic Game of the Year - Small Screen
- Best Game Design
- Best Fun for Everyone

It might not seem like a big deal but when you consider the full list of nominees, being among them is really great win for the small studio.

"It's the usual suspects at this year's Nordic ceremony, plus a few interesting choices," says Image & Form CEO Brjann Sigurgeirsson. "The Nordic game industry is as exciting and solid as ever. With SteamWorld Heist being the highest-rated original game among the lot this year, I'm confident we're bringing home something for the office award cabinet."

But even better news, SteamWorld Heist on 3DS is getting new content, very, very soon.

The game is still set to come to PC, Mac and home consoles later this year.

"We've taken our sweet time to polish the HD versions of the game," says Sigurgeirsson, "and now we're almost there. Heist looks just ridiculously tasty on a big screen, and I play it all day, every day. It's all I want to do, and there are so many ways to do it." 

So be sure to keep an eye on news as it comes for more SteamWorld Heist
