Nexus Wars

Nexus Wars is a science-fiction game set in the year 6996, 4,970 years from now, with its timeline advancing in step with real-world time. You are a Frame: a synthetic, clone or bio-engineered shell whose consciousness is caught in a 24-hour mind-swap loop caused by an unknown force working through the HyperNet, the galaxy’s network for instant hyperspace access. Nine factions wage war across neon-lit cities, vast frontiers, ancient Sun Harvesters and places where horrors lurk.

Available now

The current version includes a new launcher and lobby, along with a commander creator. In the creator, you choose a gender, one of nine factions and a lineage, select a portrait, set your attributes and origin, cast your destiny, and review your starting ship, fleet and army in 3D. The creator currently ends before your Frame is commissioned, and nothing you make in it is saved.

The nine factions

Each faction has its own lore, way of fighting and struggles:

• The Guild
• Cho'Zen Empire
• Terran Federation
• Executive Order
• Reapers Swarm
• Saradook Crimson Sun
• Trinity Union
• Vodah Collective
• Ultra Consortium

Planned game systems

The following features are in development and are intended to become available in stages:

• The Loop: a choice-driven survival story told in text. Every 24 hours, the loop closes; if you die or disconnect, you wake in a new Frame. A hostile GAME MASTER, an AI set on your demise, shapes each run. Decisions balance survival against Sols, the galaxy’s currency, and the truth behind the HyperNet.
• Mech Wars: command mech armies in auto-battler combat, leading the nine factions against NPC powers and other players.
• Space Combat: take the helm in strategic space battles and fight for control of solar systems. Customize ships and make your way through a contested frontier.
• A Universe Expands: faction lobbies, deeper customization, and RPG and first-person elements woven through the game.
• Calamity of Eternal Wars: join a Souls-like struggle against dark, alien forces threatening every faction, fighting together in impossible realms.
