About the Game

The Reserve is a casual FPS shooter with old school game modes.  Game modes available at release are Capture the Flag, Conquest, Search and Destroy, Rush, Team Deathmatch and Free for All deathmatch.  All games modes include 5 dynamic maps with changing time of day and weather.  Players gain experience by executing objectives, getting frags and by specialized lethal weapon kills.  Increased experience unlocks skins for both weapons and characters.  Coming in the fall of 2026 release, experience will unlock addition Lethal weapon abilities.

Play with friends on Steam or on a standalone LAN.  Bots are available and will auto spawn when you fire up a match; the bots drop out as more players join.  Currently the game supports random Map and Mode rotations and a Map/Mode Voting system for continuous gameplay without leaving the lobby.  Set up your own match or join a friend or a rando's match or hit up one of the dedicated servers (random map/mode rotations only at release).
