Humanity’s expansion across the galaxy is threatened by the AI-driven Substrate and renegade humans. As a member of the Post-Human Coalition—or as the Substrate—you fight for control of contested worlds.
Build a base around your Nexus, produce ground and air units, and assemble them into armies. Capture resource points across each map, defend them from enemy forces, and keep your resource network connected to your base.
Research technologies and upgrades, manage your economy, and position forces across large battlefields. Play through single-player campaigns, skirmish against AI opponents, or take part in online multiplayer, including co-op and PvP.
Players who enjoy the game often point to the scale of its battles and the satisfaction of building and directing large armies. Reviews also praise the strategic push to capture resource points, skirmishes with challenging AI, and some campaign scenarios. Others find the pace slow or the unit handling frustrating, so these strengths are not shared by every reviewer.
