About the Game

FC 2057

An unidentified super-scale battleship suddenly appears in Earth’s orbit.

Its size rivals that of a moving city.
Its firepower is capable of erasing entire metropolitan areas.

Humanity has no time to understand its origin.
The war begins immediately...

Game Overview

DREADNOUGHT: TARTARUS is a semi-automated strategic simulation game centered around a single, colossal battleship. Command this warship as it relentlessly advances across massive battle zones, destroying everything in its path.You will pilot the DREADNOUGHT through active war theaters and confront:

  • Occupied or rogue urban defense systems

  • Human military forces

  • Gigantic monsters and anomalous lifeforms

  • Invasion units from extraterrestrial civilizations

Modular Battleship Customization

TARTARUS is not a fixed unit. It is a constantly evolving war machine. You can freely configure and modify every major system of the battleship, including:

  • Hull structures and functional modules

  • Different types of main cannons, missiles, and super weapons

  • Carrier-based fighters and support units

  • Tactical loadouts optimized for different enemy types

Every decision directly shapes the battleship’s combat style, advancement speed, and battlefield presence.

Strategic Path Planning & Battlefield Progression

Combat is not a series of isolated missions.
It unfolds as a continuous campaign across a strategic map.

Before entering a war zone, you must plan your route and objectives:

  • Select priority targets and regions

  • Choose high-risk, high-reward paths

  • Adjust tactical configurations based on enemies and terrain

Your strategic decisions determine how the war unfolds.
