“科幻题材的战术策略类游戏。指挥一支太空特种部队在神秘行星上执行任务,消灭异星生物来保护人类免遭威胁,清理余孽并调查该殖民地衰败关停背后的真相。本作灵感来源于《XCOM》跟《异形》等优秀作品,有着很硬核跟细节化的玩法设定。游戏提供了高自由性的角色创建跟小队管理,如何进行战前配置完全由玩家决定。内置多样的游玩模式,加之每局地图随机生成,无论是趣味还是耐玩性都挺不错的。期待EA后续更新更多有意思的内容。”

About This Game



USC: Counterforce is a retro-inspired turn-based squad tactics game set in a tense sci-fi world. You control a strike team of commandos sent out to planetary body M-8322 to investigate and neutralize the remainders of a still mostly-unidentified alien threat. But what you find there may very well change the course of history...





!NEW CAMPAIGN MODE! - Take charge as your own personalised commander and lead your fleet in a story-driven, procedurally generated, multi-ended Campaign mode. With all the tactical depth of the previous game modes, you will also have: a detailed management system for your bases on the planet surface; requests from various factions to manage your reputation as a commander and defending fleet relay stations, your only connection to Earth.





Prepare your team to face every situation! An in-depth squad management system with complex character attributes and skills, detailed combat mechanics, and elaborate inventory system. Hundreds of weapons & gadgets are available to suit your playstyle. Hundreds of weapons & gadget combinations are available to suit your playstyle.

  • Class-free skill system with many passive abilities
  • Melee and ranged weapons with various types of ammunition

Explore and fight in interactable and fully destructible environments. Rearrange the battlefield, build barricades, avoid and exploit environmental hazards, lay traps, trigger chain reactions, seal airlocks, or break through walls—but be warned, your enemies have the same capabilities.





Push your skills to their limits in a variety of game modes. Discover a multi-layered difficulty system that guarantees challenging and engaging gameplay tailored to your taste.

  • Fully customizable Single missions
  • Challenging multi-mission operations with unique goals
  • Building, maintaining and defending your outpost in Defend the Base mode
  • and more!
