The development team at inXile working on Wasteland 2 releases a new piece of concept art which gives gamers the first look at the new Synth faction, which has been created at the request of the fan base and is described as being quite hostile to the Rangers.

The image has quite a bit of detail and fits nicely into the overall style that inXile wants to be creating for Wasteland 2, one which blends the atmosphere of the post-apocalypse with the resourcefulness of the survivors.

The new game will allow players to create their protagonist and then recruit a party before venturing out into the game world and taking part in quests for a variety of factions.

The game will be turn based and built around tactical combat seen from an isometric view.

Wasteland 2 will be launched on the PC during the fall of 2013.
