Nuclear Dawn

Set in a post-apocalyptic conflict between the Empire and the Consortium, Nuclear Dawn puts players in squad-based battles across ruined urban landscapes. You can fight on the ground as an infantry soldier or take the commander role and direct the team from a top-down view. As a soldier, choose among four classes and their loadouts, use a range of weapons, and work toward tactical objectives. As commander, organize squads, manage resources, build structures and forward bases, and research technologies to support the fight. The two factions use different base-building approaches. Teams contest resource points and terrain while expanding defenses and staging assaults; player ranks, weapon unlocks, and achievements provide additional progression.

Fight as a frontline soldier or command your team from above, combining tactical FPS combat with base-building and research.
