Genesis Rising is a space RTS that incorporates the best elements of role-playing games; immersing the player in a rich back story and drawing them into an epic crusade that they won’t soon forget. Many non-player character alien races share the vast emptiness of space with Humankind. Make alliances with other races to secure their support and technology, or purge them completely and take whatever you want! The non-linear single player campaign is comprised of over 30 branching missions that unfold as choices are made based on the actions you take. Expand your genetic capabilities through the invasion of enemy vessels, steal unsuspecting technology and maximize your gene bank’s diversity. Resource gathering, technology upgrades, and combat are refined, making Genesis Rising accessible to even the most novice RTS players. Change genetic makeup on-the-fly and adjust your approach based on your enemy’s fleet; recycling unused genes to meet any demand. A co-op mode in which two players can work together and control one fleet! GameSpy® Multiplayer featuring 12-player support and many multiplayer maps on which to flex your dominance! All of the 20+ gene-based organid ships in the game can be customized with over 50 different weapons and abilities; giving the player thousands of possible combinations to choose from when constructing a fleet. The universal resource in the game is Blood Air, which in addition to genes, can be harvested from the lifeless carcasses of organid ships. As genes are inserted, ship models will morph in real-time to reflect the choices that you make!
