About This Game

Build the fortress. Then put it to the test.

A wall buys time. A staircase opens a flank. A trap turns a doorway into a decision.

Base State combines third-person firefights with a battlefield you help build. Design defenses, choose your specialist, and fight for the objectives inside. Take on solo specialist missions or face another team in 1v1 and 5v5 matches.

Your plan becomes the battlefield

Place cover, connect floors with stairs and ramps, create firing positions, and protect your objectives with traps. Use complete building sections to assemble a stronghold quickly, or work piece by piece. In the untimed fortress editor, save a design, revisit it, and keep refining your approach.

Then the shooting starts. The doorway you protected becomes their route in. The roof you overlooked becomes their firing position. Discover what holds up under pressure.

Five specialists. Different ways to break the stalemate.

• Detector: reveal traps and objectives on attack; watch approaches with recoverable sentry darts on defense.
  
• Smoke Grenadier: hide an advance with smoke or use defensive gas to deny a capture.
  
• UAV Tracker: expose nearby enemies or jam the opposing team's abilities.
  
• Medic: keep teammates fighting; repair defenses and rearm traps while defending.
  
• Grappler: reach elevated angles and exposed gaps; reposition an uncaptured defensive flag along safe ground.

Storm the stronghold. Hold the line.

In Castle Assault, attackers push uphill from the coastal landing toward a fortified position. Defenders prepare their stronghold before combat. Fight through its approaches, contest three capture points, then switch sides and see how your own defense stands up.

Take the fight into Team Deathmatch, Capture the Flag, Team Last Man Standing, and Search and Destroy for different tests of positioning, teamwork, and construction.
