The Astronauts are thrilled to announce that their RPG Shooter Witchfire is now live in Steam Early Access! The dark fantasy FPS also launches with a new patch called “The High Stakes” update, which introduces the legendary stakegun, Striga; this fearsome firearm, allows players to impale or gib enemies with brutal force.
