Overview
Description

Earth 2150: Lost Souls thrusts players into a devastated future where the Eurasian Dynasty and the United Civilized States battle for survival. Massive terrain changes, towering mountains, and tunnel networks demand three‑dimensional tactics. The only hope for humanity is to escape to Mars, and players must manage resources, build fortifications, and out‑maneuver foes in both single‑player campaigns and multiplayer skirmishes.

Set fifty years in the future, Earth teeters on the brink of extinction, split between the guerrilla Remnants and the high‑tech Ascension. As humanity fights for dwindling resources, a savage alien race, the Hai‑Genti, invades, forcing both sides into an all‑out war for survival. Play from multiple viewpoints, wield faction‑specific tactics, and reshape the terrain itself. With the power to terraform landscapes and transform units, Maelstrom delivers frantic, destructive RTS action in a devastated world.
