Thunder Tier One

Thunder Tier One is a top-down shooter set in the 1990s, sometime after the fall of the USSR. You lead an elite special operations team sent to stop SBR, a paramilitary organization that has become a terrorist group and attacked civilian targets in the Eastern European nation of Salobia. The campaign follows the team’s mission to find SBR leader Marko Antonov and end his campaign of terror.

Campaign and co-op

The nine-mission campaign is designed for four-player co-op, where teamwork and communication help you complete each operation. You can also play solo with three AI teammates. They react to situations and can follow individual or group commands, giving you control over how closely you direct them.

Choose your loadout

Before each mission, you choose your weapons, attachments, ammunition type and amount, armor, grenades, tools and clothing camouflage. You can make the same choices for your AI teammates. Your gear supports your approach: you can equip suppressors, IR lasers and NVGs for stealth, or take heavy armor and extra ammunition and grenades for a more direct assault.

Tactical gunplay

Weapons differ in handling, rate of fire, muzzle velocity, effective range and accuracy. Weapon characteristics and ammunition affect shot accuracy and damage against armored and unarmored targets, as well as whether rounds penetrate cover. If they do, the round’s damage and trajectory are also affected. These factors shape how you approach objectives and engagements.

Multiplayer modes

Thunder Tier One includes four multiplayer modes:

• Exfil: In 4v4, attackers must extract a package before time runs out, while defenders try to stop them.
• Advance and Secure: Two teams of four compete to secure a series of sectors.
• Death Match: A free-for-all mode for up to eight players.
• Domination: Up to four players work together in a PvE mode to secure checkpoints, disarm explosives and defend against counter-attacks, racing against the clock.
