Overview
Description

In 2075 humanity lives under the iron grip of Grathius Inc., a corrupt mega‑corporation that resurrects its soldiers with nano‑cloning technology. As Flynn Haskell, you lead a rag‑tag band of rebels across ruined cities from San Francisco to Taiwan and Japan, battling immortal troops and uncovering the truth behind the cloning devices. The game blends first‑person shooting, tactical strategy and a dark sci‑fi narrative, letting you recruit allies like Eve the scientist and Duffy the escape artist while sabotaging Grathius’ plans. Experience a gritty, post‑World‑War‑II‑Europe aesthetic on Linux and PC, with a single‑player campaign that rewards careful planning and relentless firepower.

Future Tactics: The Uprising blends turn‑based strategy with fast‑paced action, letting you command a squad of nine characters against mutant hordes. The single‑player story mode follows a tale of love, loss, redemption, and hope in a bleak, futuristic world. In split‑screen battle mode two players can pit their teams against each other, testing tactical wit and terrain mastery. With a focus on positioning, character abilities, and environmental advantages, every decision can turn the tide of battle.
