Slitherine LTD, leading publisher of digital wargames and strategy games, in collaboration with Sony Pictures Consumer Products, announced “Starship Troopers – Terran Command,” a real-time strategy (RTS) game based on TriStar Pictures’s iconic 1997 movie to be released for PC in 2020.
About Starship Troopers – Terran Command
Set in the same universe of the original movie, “Starship Troopers – Terran Command” drops players right at the heart of a human colony overrun by the Arachnids. They must take the fight into bug territory, where they will lead an army of elite soldiers to defeat the alien menace. They will deploy their units in strategic locations to cover vital choke-points, build defense emplacements, and achieve superior firepower through the tactical use of elevation levels.
“If you take one of the most iconic movies from the 90s and shape it into a strategy game of survival, that mixes classic real-time mechanics, tower defense and tactical deployment of units then you have ‘Starship Troopers – Terran Command’ in a nutshell. Modern strategy games are fast-paced and they successfully blend unit management, survival and captivating storytelling. Nothing is more suited to this type of gameplay than the Starship Troopers universe, where there is a continuous sense of danger and uncertainty”.
Iain McNeil, Development Director at Slitherine
