Starship Troopers: Extermination

Starship Troopers: Extermination is a cooperative first-person shooter for up to 16 players, set on the frontlines of a planetary war against the Arachnids. You squad up, take on missions across vast planets and fight to reclaim territory from the bugs.

The war effort

You retake and rebuild strategic bases, construct refineries, gather resources and complete objectives to wrest control from the swarm. Coordinate with other squads to defend objectives and build fortifications, using real-time tools to place walls, towers and ammo stations. Missions take place on maps with environmental hazards, including Valaka’s blinding sandstorms and Agni Prime’s volcanic conditions. Time of day and dynamic weather can help or hinder your efforts.

Classes

Choose from six classes, each with its own progression, weapons and perks:

• Ranger: Use a specialized jetpack to move quickly, scout objectives and make hit-and-run attacks. Rangers excel in close-quarters combat and can flank threats or reach distant refineries.
• Sniper: Use jump jets to reach high vantage points, scout incoming waves and provide long-range support. The Morita XXX Sniper Rifle is suited to taking out high-priority enemies such as Plasma Grenadiers and Gunners.
• Demolisher: Carry a heavy mortar system and grenade launchers to deal explosive area damage. The class can use its “Watkins Trigger” to clear bug-infested areas and help hold the line during extraction.
• Guardian: Wield the Morita MK3 SAW and use hardened armor to anchor the frontline. Siege Mode increases defensive stats and weapon stability while limiting mobility, helping Guardians suppress hordes and protect teammates.
• Engineer: Build, maintain and repair fortifications, repairing structures faster than other classes. Engineers can deploy flamethrowers and mines to create choke points and help manage the team’s resources, ammunition and defenses.
• Medic: Use a Medical UAV drone and stim-launchers to heal and revive Troopers at range. Medics revive faster and more effectively than other Troopers, helping keep the squad fighting.

The Carnage System

Defeated Arachnids remain on the battlefield, where their bodies pile up and change the terrain. Corpse piles can block sightlines and paths to extraction, but can also provide high ground for Troopers. Living bugs can climb the piles like ramps to get over walls, so you may need explosives to clear them and keep your base secure.
