Description

The Red Solstice is a PC strategic, team-based action shooter from the top-down perspective with a strong focus on unique and cooperative multi-player.

Story

The singleplayer campaign is focused on a marine called Tyler Hunt and his squad, designated as “Unit Black Light”. They are sent to investigate a communications failure in the Tharsis colony on Mars. This portion of the game has a story that expands over to the multiplayer and provides information and tips for every class available.

Multiplayer

The Red Solstice primarily focuses on multiplayer. After you find a team to play with, land in one of the 6 available sectors with your team or “accidentally” separated, gather as much supplies as you can, team up and prepare for zombie waves.

You need to complete various (randomized) mission chains in that sector for valuable bonuses and stay alive so you can evacuate by a drop-ship. You will need to explore the surroundings, adapt to the enemy and create a correct tactic to counter the specific and unique situation, and you can move and explore where and what you want without restrictions, even change sectors!

Features

Intense multiplayer for up to 8 players – The Red Solstice multiplayer mode features constant, intense action and demands players' full attention and focus at all times.

Dynamic Light System

Power up street lights, turn them off, prevent EMP bombs from disabling the lights around you and much more...

Replay Value

Over 50 randomly generated missions spread across the map ensure an almost unique experience with each match, different zombies in different sectors, and randomized lights in each sectors so you have to.

Great Emphasis on Teamwork and Tactics

Within multiplayer games, strategic, tactical decisions and teamwork will determine the outcome (scout your enemy, plan your movements, prepare and execute your tactics).

Eight Playable Characters

8 unique and distinct character classes – each with its own unique roles, advantages and disadvantages.

Ranks and Medals

Fully Customizable Characters

15 Singleplayer Missions

Epic Storyline

Between 8 combat suits, the player will assume the roles of important characters and follow the storyline from several perspectives. The storyline continues in multiplayer mode.
