Play it if you…

Skip it if you…

- Solo players who do not want to manage factions, fleets, troops, and installations
Our take on Executive Assault 2
Rather than keeping strategy at an overhead distance, the game lets the commander enter the battlefield directly. Base construction, fleet control, and economy management share space with piloting fighters, boarding ships, fighting on foot, and infiltrating enemy installations.
What is Executive Assault 2?
Executive Assault 2 combines real-time strategy with first-person combat in a space setting.
Players build asteroid bases or deploy outposts, claim sectors, mine resources, trade goods, manage power, research technologies, and upgrade defenses.

The game includes three factions, more than 70 building types, multiplayer for up to 4 CEO companies, up to 3 AI-controlled CEOs, and a map editor.
