The game, described as a “spaghetti anime” with cinematic mech combat, team building, and open-world RPG features, will cost $29.99, £24.99, or €29.99. Developer DESTINYbit also announced that a demo, containing the first chapter of the story, is available now on all platforms except the Epic Games Store.
NITRO GEN OMEGA initially became available on PC through Early Access on June 17th.

It will also include a more detailed story, new characters, animated cutscenes, and a larger soundtrack.
Here is an overview of the game, via DESTINYbit:
About
A world ruled by machines.
Humans didn’t win the war. Now, the ruined world is overrun by rebellious AI and the remnants of military machines searching for resources. You lead a team of mercenaries, taking jobs from the few cities still standing, which are built high above the dangerous surface.
