About the Game

As Major John “Dutch” Cane, you're in charge of a platoon of mercenary commandos—mercenaries outfitted with experimental weaponry the military wouldn't even dream of issuing to their troops. Lead your team to a space station that has been overrun by mutated alien parasites. Your orders are to take out the enemy before they have a chance to zero in on the station's control center and threaten colonized space. Secure the station by eliminating the alien threat, or life as you know it will cease to exist.
