Supreme Commander 2 is a sci-fi real-time strategy game set 25 years after the events of Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance. Its single-player campaign follows three commanders, each associated with a different faction, across three character-driven storylines.
Build and defend bases, gather resources, and command armies of land, air, and naval units. Battles can grow to involve large forces, with attacks and defenses shaped by how you develop your base and deploy your units.
Research technologies to unlock new units and improve existing ones, including experimental war machines. Play the campaign, set up skirmishes, or battle online, with three factions offering different units and approaches.
Players who enjoy the game often praise it as an accessible, entertaining RTS with satisfying large battles. Skirmishes against AI or with friends and the research and base-building systems also come up positively. Views on the campaign are mixed, while many comparisons with earlier series entries criticize this game for having less complexity and scale.
