Tempest Rising (v1.3.0.48710 & ALL DLCs)

Tempest Rising blends the classic real-time strategy gameplay of the 90s and 2000s with modern production values and performance enhancements, delivering a fresh yet familiar RTS experience. Set in an alternate modern-day Earth ravaged by conflict, the game centers around the mysterious Tempest vines—enigmatic flora with powerful but unpredictable properties that both the Global Defense Forces and the Tempest Dynasty seek to control. Players assume the role of a commander navigating two distinct 11-mission campaigns, each offering unique storylines and tactical challenges. The Global Defense Forces represent a highly mobile peacekeeping force, while the Tempest Dynasty embodies a desperate but relentless faction, each with their own combat styles and economic strategies. Gameplay emphasizes strategic base building, resource management, and skillful combat, with three factions planned to offer diverse approaches to warfare. Currently, players can command either the GDF or the Tempest Dynasty, customizing their armies to suit different mission objectives and playstyles. The game supports both single-player and multiplayer modes, including custom matches against AI, skirmishes with up to 500 units per side, and competitive ranked matchmaking using the Glicko-2 rating system. Voiced mission briefings and a variety of customization options deepen player engagement, allowing for tailored strategies in both solo and cooperative play. With its combination of nostalgic RTS elements and modern design, Tempest Rising offers a rich tactical experience for strategy enthusiasts.
