Face your greatest challenge yet in a new collection of Rebel Inc. Official Scenarios, featuring murderous turrets, mountain fortresses and the ultra brutal insurgency!


The Insurgents are using advanced cell tactics and splintering whenever defeated in combat.

The use of AI Sentry Turrets has been authorised. Equipped with threat sensors, they can pin Insurgents down and inflict heavy casualties over time.

Use high-tech automated defences to fight a tenacious Insurgency.




The Insurgency is equipped with every Insurgent Tactic! The odds are against you and extreme strategic abilities will be needed to win.

WARNING - this is the most challenging Rebel Inc. scenario ever! The developers can just about manage to beat it on casual difficulty…



Vital convoys are headed towards the soon-to-be-completed Azure Dam carrying supplies and machinery. But first, they have to navigate Hell's Highway and the Insurgents know they are coming...

Defend convoys from those damned(!) Insurgent attacks as they travel through the region.


Insurgents have established a base of operations in an ancient mountain fortress. The structure offers a formidable defence against military intervention; the Insurgents will not let it fall easily.

Break through the Insurgent fortifications and gain control of the fortress to secure the Region.


After decades of civil war, the once tranquil Saffron Plains have fallen to the Insurgency. The thriving saffron trade has died out, and the population has turned to your Operation to save the Region from the brink of collapse.

A fast and effective response will be required to save this Region before it's too late.

That's it for this year! We'll be developing more scenarios in the future, what would you like to see? Fill out this form, post in the Steam Forums or join our Discord and tell us what you want to see!

Be sure to check out the custom scenarios made by the community in the Steam Workshop! Or even create your own in the Scenario Creator.



The Ndemic Creations team

• Added 5 new Official Scenarios
  
• Fixed issue in Omnigovernor and Private Contractor where region initiative would not appear
  
• Insurgent in a Tank scenario: The tank will no longer panic when repeatedly attacked in the same zone. Instead it will carefully consider its strategy and execute its plan accordingly (take that Pravus)

Take on a new set of deliciously dangerous Rebel Inc. Official Scenarios, featuring hopelessly besieged embassies, vicious helicopter gunships and expansive tunnel networks!


Bring death from above with the advanced Helicopter Gunship. Seek and destroy stolen weapons caches, training grounds and camps to force the Insurgents into submission.

Deploy a powerful helicopter to provide mobile offensive and defensive capabilities during this engagement.

Move fast; hit hard.



A mega-corporation has secured all construction contracts in the region. The Board of Directors refuses to allow the unsupervised roll out of civilian initiatives so multiple Experts must be deployed to roll out Initiatives directly.

Balance Experts, Hostility and Corruption to stabilise the Region zone by zone.



Insurgents are launching a huge attack to kidnap negotiators and disrupt the fragile peace process.
Strategically evacuate your embassies before the insurgents reach them and hold out against relentless assault waves until the peace deal can be signed.


A large and well-established network of interconnected Tunnels has been identified in this Region, allowing the Insurgency to attack or flee through Zones across the map. Bunker Buster missiles have been authorised to assist in stabilising the Region.

Careful strategic management of military resources will be required to suppress the insurgency here.


We hope you enjoy them!

However, prepare yourself, as more Rebel Inc. Official Scenarios will be dropping soon and they’re the most brutal yet...

If you can’t wait until then, be sure to check out the custom scenarios made by the community in the Steam Workshop! Or even create your own in the Scenario Creator.

Jump into the Rebel Inc. multiverse with a series of exciting new Official Scenarios! Tackle devious new challenges, discover new ways to play and explore bizarre worlds.



The Insurgents aren't the only threat in this hot, humid land. Cases of the Southern Fever have been detected across the Region, leaving Soldiers vulnerable to infection.

There's no cure but the new Medic governor can treat soldiers to get them back to strength and stop them spreading the infection further.



The last insurgents in the Region have stolen a tank and are trying to attack your HQ! The tank can't be killed but your soldiers can make it flee in panic.

Buy your negotiators enough time as they try to persuade the insurgents to come out of the tank!



The Insurgency is rapidly developing new Tactics. Left to their own devices, they will soon overwhelm any efforts to stabilise the Region. Halt the increasingly dangerous Insurgency and defeat them!

Develop new Tactics of your own to counter an ever expanding insurgency.



Play as every governor... at the same time! With their powers combined, anything is possible.

Flourish and fail with the benefits and the drawbacks of every governor at once.

We hope you enjoy them!




This is just the beginning - We've got lots more wild, wicked and downright weird Official Scenarios coming soon! Not to mention we also have new maps and governors on the horizon...

Can't wait until then? Check out the custom scenarios made by the community in the Steam Workshop! Or even create your own in the Scenario Creator.

Be sure to join our Discord to talk with the scenario builders themselves!

After over 4 years of development and two years in Early Access, we’re finally here - Rebel Inc: Escalation 1.0 is out! Thank you so much to the Rebel Inc: Escalation community for helping along the way by sharing feedback and suggestions on the steam forums and Discord. Truly, we could not have done this without you!

To celebrate leaving Early Access and all we’ve added over the last couple of years, check out our shiny new trailer!



The last two years in Early Access have been quite a ride! In that time, we’ve added a steady stream of massive free updates to the game including…

This enormous addition completely changed the Rebel Inc: Escalation experience, allowing the community to play a sequence of connected games over several Regions. It also introduced a huge number of Map Features, Player and Insurgent Perks, bringing more variation to the game.

Three new regions were added, accompanied by new mechanics to mix up gameplay. The Infamous Black Caves region introduced Caves to the game, whilst the Azure Dam tasked players with defending a convoy from an insurgent threat. Finally Opium Trail introduced opium farms and the Initiatives to combat them.

Weekly Challenges were added to the game, featuring preset combinations of Region, Governor, Advisors, Map Features, Player and Insurgent Tactics as well as starting control. Two new Challenges are released every Wednesday in both standard and Brutal difficulties. Challenges are the same for the whole community, allowing players to compete for the number 1 spot!

Vs Multiplayer lets players take control of the Insurgency in their opponent’s Region to try and topple their government, while still trying to stabilise their own! A whole suite of new Initiatives and Active abilities were introduced such as Ambushes and Garrison Sabotage. Vs Mode also features dynamically scaling difficulty, ensuring that players of different skill levels can have a good, challenging game.

Co-Op Multiplayer allowed two players to work together to simultaneously stabilise two separate Regions. Players share Reputation and need to work together to succeed - sending each other resources and soldiers to achieve their goals. Players are also able to purchase a series of specially designed new Initiatives as well as embark on a Co-Op Campaign with their partner.

Two new governors were added, each radically shaking up gameplay. The Development Director focusses on prioritising zones for development, while fan favourite, the Tank Commander focussed on crushing their opponents with big heavy tanks!

The much requested Scenario Creator gave the community a voice, letting players dive into the nuts and bolts of the game to build their own Scenarios. Along with this came a group of new structures like Oil Derricks, Tunnels and Rogue Outposts, allowing hugely varied gameplay opportunities.

Along with the Scenario Creator, this update really gave the community the chance to play Rebel Inc: Escalation in fresh new ways - new scenarios are going up to the Steam Workshop every day!

Speedrunners in our community rejoiced as they were finally able to prove who was quickest on each Region, once and for all.

This special treat for the statheads in our community (you know who you are!) let players dive into their history to shine a light on how they play.

Of course along with our major updates, we were always working to improve the game in myriad other ways including adding an entirely new difficulty, updating artwork, localisation improvements, balance tweaks, quality of life enhancements and hundreds (and hundreds) of bug fixes.

This isn't the end of the road for Rebel Inc: Escalation! We’ll be continuing to update the game in the future. Got an idea for what you’d like to see? Let us know in our Discord or on the Steam forums.

We’re thrilled to be moving on to the next chapter for Rebel Inc. Thank you so much to each and everyone one of you for supporting us on the way.

Hot on the heels of our massive Co-op Multiplayer and Scenario Creator updates comes VS Multiplayer, our last major update before 1.0 and leaving Early Access! Pit your wits against friends, or run the gauntlet in quick match as you take on the tricky task of not only stabilising your own region, but also toppling your opponents’!


Sponsor an insurgency in your opponent’s Region and work to defeat their Operation! Build Insurgent Camps, recruit fighters and position your forces strategically before launching your attacks!


Fund the construction of Tunnel Networks allowing your insurgent forces to stage sneak attacks or slip away unseen from engagements. Uncover Caves to shelter them from bombardment.


Make use of Ambushes, Sabotage and Rapid Assaults to bring a new type of war to your opponent. Harass their soldiers and destabilise their Zones to damage their reputation.


Vs Mode features dynamically scaling difficulty, ensuring that players of different skill levels can have a good, challenging game - usually with a nail-biting finish! Can you get to Mega Brutal Tier A and beyond...?


We’re hard at work on version 1.0 and very close to leaving Early Access! We’ve still got more surprises up our sleeves and we can’t wait to show you (not long now).
