About the Game

Old school RTS is back! Outlive 25 is the remastered version of the game originally released in 2000, now with enhanced graphics and sound, an updated Campaign Editor, Steam multiplayer support, and much more. Get ready for a battle of unprecedented proportions, fought to achieve supremacy—and above all—to ensure humanity’s survival.

Choose between humans and robots and prove you can create unique strategies to advance your army to superior technological and military levels, securing your victory.

Engage in epic face-to-face battles with up to 16 players simultaneously, forming strategic alliances to defeat your rivals. Compete against other players to earn your spot in the Outlive 25 leaderboard.

Looking for a real challenge? Test your skills by facing Outlive 25’s advanced AI in memorable battles against the computer. But that’s not all! With customizable unit AI, you can focus more on building your base, exploring the terrain, and launching crushing attacks against your enemies.

Create and share your own maps and campaigns with friends and other players. Use custom event scripting to generate controlled actions and iconic moments, and design your own game modes where the only limit is your creativity and imagination.

AND MORE:

  • Research Tree: Upgrade your units and make your buildings more efficient during matches, making each battle unique.

  • Espionage & Counterespionage: Scout enemy bases, intercept incoming missiles, and carry out other covert actions.

  • Pathing System: Automate unit behaviors so you can focus entirely on your strategy.

  • Diplomacy: Forge alliances with other armies to take down your opponents.
