Plunge into the heart of battle as the ultimate battlefield commander fighting for survival in a science fantasy universe, where Earth’s fate hangs on the edge of oblivion.
Human defenders and their faithful robot allies stand defiant against two warring alien factions: a race of warlike demonic invaders and their technologically advanced angelic rivals. Together, these three are locked in a relentless struggle for dominance. Stormgate puts you in command of futuristic armies in epic real-time strategy battles.
Fight for the Future
Dive into the ultimate test of strategic warfare with three highly-asymmetric factions: the stalwart Human Vanguard, the relentless Infernal Host, or the highly-advanced Celestial Armada.
Team up with friends and command legendary Heroes to conquer the challenging AI in co-op mode, or test your mettle on the global stage in a hero-free competitive ranked ladder focused purely on player skill.
Next Generation RTS
Stormgate takes RTS gaming to new heights by harnessing the power of Unreal Engine 5, supercharged by our proprietary SnowPlay technology.
