Frozen Synapse 2

Frozen Synapse 2 combines grand strategy with simultaneous-turn-based combat in a vast, procedurally generated city. In single-player, you defend Markov Geist from threats within and beyond its borders, build bases, deploy forces and choose where to enter buildings or engage targets across the map.

Plan your operations

When you take tactical control, the camera zooms in on your units so you can plan and test your moves. Pressing “Prime” locks in your plan, after which you see how it plays out against your opponent’s. The game also features improved AI and UI changes to the planning process.

The city of Markov Geist

AI-controlled factions compete for influence and pursue their own schemes. You can collaborate or betray, rob banks, assassinate political leaders or make diplomatic agreements. You can investigate the mysterious force making incursions into the city while building your own power base, follow the story or pursue your own path. The factions include the financial manipulators Diamond Brothers and the hacker collective GUEST.

Multiplayer

Frozen Synapse 2 includes multiplayer modes from the original game and new ways to challenge opponents. In One Turn mode, you commit a plan and see how it plays out against opponents from around the world.

Units and environments

New units include the Flamethrower, Minigun, Knife and Smoke Grenade. Curved walls, trees, rocks and cars add variety to levels ranging from road intersections to enormous shopping malls. The new Focus Diamond mechanic lets you predict the position of enemies behind cover. The game also features a new soundtrack by nervous_testpilot.
