M.E.R.C.

M.E.R.C. is a real-time tactical strategy game set in Neotopia, the last city standing in a mysterious cyberpunk world called the Sprawl. Corporations have divided the city through corruption and greed, while Manta forces have disrupted progress toward sustainability. You recruit, train and deploy mercenaries to fight Manta and save humanity from its suppressive force.

Lead your squad

You control a four-person team, advancing units, taking cover and assigning them to use special abilities. For difficult firefights, you can split the squad into two-person pods named Alpha and Bravo. Missions bring new dangers, so you manage your team’s composition according to each mission’s needs, including unit capabilities, strengths and abilities.

Train your mercenaries

Recruit and upgrade units, improve their special abilities, and equip them with better weapons and gear. Your mercenaries gain XP and Skill Points in battle, which you use to unlock more abilities. Units can take one of four classes: Assault, Sniper, Heavy or Engineer. They can also specialize in subclasses such as Medic and Hacker.

Missions and co-op

You can play story missions, campaigns and side missions alone or in co-op multiplayer. In co-op, you bring two of your units to combine with another player’s two best units and take on Manta together. Successful missions earn financial bonuses and increase your reputation; you use those rewards to advance your troops.
