Set in an urban near-future that is Haven City, players can control a squad of mercenaries as they battle gangsters, rivals mercs and corrupt government forces in a bid to make ends meet.

Players will manage their crew’s stats and gear, wrangle a diverse range of merc personalities, and conquer the game’s deep tactical elements.

As you complete the story-driven campaign, you and your Steel Dragons will discover cold and brutal conspiracies that beat in the very corrupted heart of this last city of Earth.

The game promises to feature a unique free-aiming combat and nonrestrictive navigating system. Therefore, Project Haven promises to bring a refreshing way of play through a gritty story for a mature audience.

Turnbased, dystopia, storydriven, mature = I'm interested to know more.

MANUAL OVERRIDE ON AIMING: Our unique free-aiming system allows you to take control of a merc and manually shoot from 3rd person view. With our modular damage feature, you can wing your enemy to reduce their accuracy, shoot them in the legs to slow their movement, or go for sweet extra damage with a headshot.

FLEXIBLE TACTICAL COMBAT: Hunker down or lean into cover. Use stealth to avoid detection. Throw grenades or heal your mercs. Hack locks or demolish walls to get to your enemies. And all the while your mercs have free movement, navigating without restrictive square or hex grids.
Actually that's XCom+Valkyria Chronicles system = where do I preorder?! :D

Looks interesting, but seems to be very focused on combat. Keeping an eye out to see if there's more to it.

Looks interesting. It does have a Steam page, but no pre-order button and only a vague 2020.
