Overview
Description

Armada puts you in the cockpit of a customizable starship, traveling to diverse planets for trade missions and tactical assaults. The game blends classic shooter action with RPG‑style upgrades in an open‑world sci‑fi setting. Originally a Dreamcast title, Armada now offers single‑player and split‑screen co‑op on PC, letting you face an ever‑growing alien threat while managing ship upgrades and cargo runs.

Shelly “Bombshell” Harrison, a former bomb technician turned mercenary, battles through surreal alien worlds to rescue the President and stop the Kyrr. Armed with a growing tech tree, destructive weaponry, and fierce combat abilities, she fights to save Earth from the mad scientist Jadus Heskel. The game blends shooter, RPG, and adventure elements in a single‑player campaign, offering intense action, customizable arm configurations, and a sci‑fi storyline that keeps players engaged from start to finish.
