Buy Tempest Rising Deluxe Edition PC key

Tempest Rising is a base-building real-time strategy game set during a modern-day alternative-history war on Earth. You command armies, build bases and fight across a war-torn planet where mysterious Tempest vines grow unchecked. The Global Defense Forces and the Tempest Dynasty both seek to understand and control the vines, while the origin of the Tempest points to further dangers.

Factions and campaigns

You take the role of a commander in two 11-mission campaigns, one as the highly mobile, advanced peacekeeping corps of the Global Defense Forces (GDF), and the other as the hard-hitting, desperate Tempest Dynasty. Each campaign has voiced mission briefings, and you can customize your army for each mission. A third faction, the ancient Veti, is available in multiplayer and skirmish; its campaign is sold separately.

Each of the three factions has its own approach to combat and economy, with different strategies to pursue. Their unique unit rosters and superweapons support their respective playstyles.

Game modes

You can play alone or with others in three modes:

• Custom Game: play against AI opponents in custom lobbies.
• Multiplayer Matchmaking: compete in 1v1 or 2v2 matches.
• Skirmish: play solo with up to 500 units per team.

Ranked matchmaking uses the Glicko-2 rating system and leaderboards for competitive play. The game combines classic RTS base-building with fast, fluid combat that rewards strategic decisions and player skill, and includes customization options for both single-player and multiplayer.
