Offworld Industries has announced Starship Troopers: Extermination, a new 12-player squad-based shooter based on the iconic 1997 film.
The new cooperative first-person shooter is launching initially in early access for Windows PC (via Steam) sometime in 2023.
Here’s a rundown on Starship Troopers: Extermination, plus its first trailer:
Starship Troopers: Extermination
Starship Troopers: Extermination drops up to 12 players right into the fight against the Bug menace in this co-op first person shooter. Suit up and ship out to a far-off front as a Trooper in the Deep Space Vanguard, an elite Special Forces group within the Mobile Infantry. It’s up to squads like yours to battle against hundreds of bloodthirsty insectoid aliens and take back fallen colonies for the Federation. The only good Bug is a dead Bug!
No Trooper stands alone. As soon as the dropship hits dirt, your trusty Morita Assault Rifle and fellow Deep Space Vanguard Troopers are all that will keep you alive while exploring the hostile surface of the planet Valaka. Work together to complete objectives, acquire resources, build and defend a base, and then escape to the extraction point together.
