About Stellar Commanders

Stellar Commanders is a fast-paced multiplayer real-time strategy game that pits player against player in a bid to take control of distant planets as part of an inter-galactic war for precious resources. In a future filled with conflict and scarcity, earth’s most precious metal is found to exist in small planetoids. To seize control of the Iridium buried beneath the surface of these celestial bodies, players must first engage their enemies on the surface in a tactical land grab.

Is it more efficient to become a destructive force that subdues the enemy opposition, or better to be a surgical, strategic conqueror that snatches key territory quickly? Players must decide – based on the terrain, available resources and their opposition – and take action before seven minutes is up.

The speedy 1-vs-1-battles will see each player align with a different faction and choose units based on a deep roster of unlockable futuristic troops; from rockets, tanks and stealth generators to bombastic orbital satellites, all of which will help determine tactical decisions.

This is our first multiplayer strategy game and one that we’ve been excited about for some time – it seemed like a perfect next step after the huge success of First Strike. Combining the First Strike community’s feedback about making a multiplayer strategy title with our own love of ‘90s RTS games has resulted in Stellar Commanders, which will have all the fast-paced fun of a modern, tactical RTS as well as a touch of nostalgia.
