About the Game

Do not be afraid. Or maybe do.

In 1945, a group of Nazis escaped to the dark side of the Moon. There they waited, built a secret moon base, and spent more than 70 years planning a comeback absolutely nobody asked for. Bad ideas rarely disappear on their own.

In 2018, they finally made their move: the Fourth Reich attacked Earth. From lunar orbit came an invasion fleet proving that, with enough Helium-3, megalomania can apparently become spaceworthy. Humanity faced an overwhelming threat — and, as usual, the rescue plan was alarmingly improvised.

That is where you come in.

Take control, pilot, and fight the Moon Nazis in Earth’s orbit in Iron Sky: Invasion. Explore an open space map, survive enemy attack waves, complete missions, upgrade your ships, and prove that one elite pilot can sometimes be the difference between “Earth saved” and “historically catastrophic relapse, now with spaceships.”

Become the next legend of space combat — or at least the person who survives long enough to face the Götterdämmerung in the final battle.

Key Features:

  • Dozens of missions centered on the invasion of the Fourth Reich

  • Seamless open-world space battlefield between Earth and the Moon — unfortunately, exactly where the Moon Nazis are currently invading

  • Five different playable spacecraft: Dundee, Spitfire, Banzai, Canadarm³, and Xerg, each with its own strengths, weaknesses, and combat roles

  • Lasers, missiles, plasma weapons, and tactical nuclear arguments against historically questionable targets

  • Defend satellites, space stations, and the last remaining scraps of orbital order

  • Dogfights, capital-ship assaults, and everything else the Moon Reich has coming

  • Resource management and wreckage salvage from anything that does not explode fast enough

  • Energy distribution between engines, shields, and weapons — because survival is sometimes just a matter of priorities

  • Extensive ship upgrade system in the hangar with over 100 possible combinations

  • Around 90 minutes of video content, including film scenes, full-screen intros, and desperate distress calls from orbital crisis control

  • Mission briefings featuring cast members from the Iron Sky film, including Julia Dietze, Stephanie Paul, Claus Wilcke, and Irshad Panjatan

  • Allied and enemy ships from the Iron Sky universe, including Walkyrs, Zeppelins, and the Götterdämmerung

  • Sweeping orchestral soundtrack for the proper end-of-the-world mood in Earth’s orbit

  • Moon Nazis. In space. Unfortunately, not a misunderstanding.
