One of the greatest sci-fi strategy games of all time returns with remastered visuals and online multiplayer.
Enter an alternate vision of the 1960s where the “space race” is nothing more than a cover for an interplanetary war between the US and Soviet Russia over mysterious alien bio-metal.
Take command of an army of sleek heavy assault tanks, strike cruisers, APCs and more, and wreak havoc with super-heated projectiles in your mission to blast your enemy from the face of the Moon, Mars, Venus, Titan, Io and Europa.
Scavenge the battlefields for crucial bio-metal, deploy powerful defenses, construct advanced facilities and escalate each battle to an epic confrontation.
Revolutionary, revitalised and remastered, Battlezone 98 Redux’s blend of thrilling first person action and tense RTS gameplay is as essential now as it ever was.
Two Explosive Campaigns - Play as American or Soviet forces in two separate singleplayer campaigns, with 29 missions across 7 different planetary environments.
Sleek Remastered Visuals - Play Battlezone 98 as it should have been, in HD with completely remodelled vehicles and buildings, enhanced lighting and shadows, improved particle effects, upgraded animations, upscaled terrain, and more.
Online Multiplayer for 2-8 players - Experience the classic rush of "Deathmatch", or test your skills in a pulse-pounding battle of wits in "Strategy" mode.
I love it, its a great game. I really can't believe how much the graphics are updated from the original! thanks Big Boat for delivering such a great experience!
When this video game came with our new PC in late 90's, I was very impressed. A first-person shooter and real-time strategy hybrid with good-looking visuals, effects, mechanics and gameplay. I've been wondering how could this game became so long-forgotten.
The game itself is the same as in 1998, but the visuals have been improved. You play in first-person point of view just like in shooter games, but you also build bases, gather resources and command units just like in many real-time strategy games. Instead of bird-eye view, you have a part of the fast-paced action and it all happens in real-time. Sounds like a complex hybrid, but it still works very well.
The game gives a good impression how to drive hover tanks and other scifi vechiles. The UI serves it purpose very well and the game levels have their own look and the good atmosphere. If something should have been improved besides the graphics then it's enemy and ally AI, ammo and repair economy and also the missions with endless enemy waves. Also the better control configuration would have been very welcome in this redux version of the game.
At least the problems are not that serious and the gaming experience is highly positive.
I fell in love with this game back in 1999, a year after it's release and have been playing it ever since, and now in 2025 I find myself still enjoying it to the max. I highly recommend this game to anyone who enjoys war games and/or retro games ...Enjoy!
It's just how you remember it IF you remember it. It's a fun blend of FPS and Real Time Strategy. It controls great, the updated models for the tanks and buildings stay true to the original design. Everything is here, in high resolution and easily playable. Give it a try.
