A real-time strategy taking place in the distant future. Three nations: People, Sorin and Dreil; they are fighting for domination. The action of the game takes place in a fully three-dimensional environment with dynamically changing weather conditions and a constant passage of time.
For eons, the planet Natrolis was controlled by the magic of the reptilian Sorin race. But when a fleet of tech-powered humans arrives to colonize the surface, they awaken the unimaginable - the Dreil, a hyper-evolved insectoid warrior race hibernating deep within the planet's core. Now, all three forces collide in a mortal struggle for domination.
3 unique races to play with different strategies for success: Colonists - High Tech (a sci-fi mechanized army), Sorin - Swords and Sorcery (a fantasy army with magic powers), Dreil - Monsters (use brute force and hive and cocooning behavior)
Highly detailed 3D world with day and night cycles, plants that sway in the wind, and ambient creatures that have their own life cycles and AI.* Realistic weather that effects your strategy. Rains will slow down movement, wind patterns change, nighttime brings darkness.
True 3D engine with fully adjustable perspective, zoom, and viewing angle.
Classic RTS Gameplay with brand new concepts. Easy to learn, but a challenge to master.
Robust multiplayer options with several different modes, including Domination, Capture the Flag, and Campaign.
Explore the extensive technology trees of the Sorin, Colonist, and Dreil forces. Each collects a unique resource.
Feel the persistent effects of combat, like destroyed structures, scorched earth, deformed terrain, and more.
Create and control some of the largest 3D units ever seen in a strategy game.
