Starship Troopers: Terran Command News

Starting today, anyone can apply to the closed beta for the upcoming DLC “Raising Hell”, which includes the first three missions.

You can start playing them right away; all you need to do is apply to the beta by registering yourself here. Please note that if you previously applied to any of the old betas for the game, you will still need to re-apply. Instructions to get access to the beta will be sent out to you via email upon acceptance into the beta.
We are looking for good and honest feedback of any kind on the new scenarios, so any help is greatly appreciated.

And now a quick look at one of the new scenarios…

Warm Welcome



Captain Zhao and his troopers have just arrived on Vilon space station to organize the M.I. expedition on planet Gehenna. They are surprised to find dead Bugs scattered around a large transporter in the cargo bay and they want to know what happened there…

Attention, citizens of the Federation!

Strap in and lock 'n' load as Starship Trooper: Terran Command drops the bombshell you've been waiting for - the "Raising Hell" DLC is coming in hot! Brace yourselves for an infernal battleground on the godforsaken world of Gehenna, where molten lava, volcanic eruptions, and hordes of savage Arachnids conspire to test your mettle!

Raise Hell with new missions. Far above the surface of Gehenna lies the majestic Vilon Station, a vital space hub where colossal freighters feed its unyielding thirst for fuel. But with the Bug War on the rise, mercenary defenses can't cut it anymore. That's where the Mobile Infantry charges in - and that means you, citizen!

Deploy advanced firepower. When it's Bug hunting season, you need the best tools for the job! Take command of the Engineering Biped, improvising frontline defense with a drilling arm that'll turn Arachnids into cosmic dust. Firefighters stand ready to extinguish the flames of war, wielding portable extinguishers that even put raging Arachnids in their place. And we're not done yet - Frag Mercs' frags pack a punch, and Shredder Mercs are armed with portable miniguns that'll perforate Bugs like paper.

Beware evolved Arachnids. Gehenna's inferno has bred Bugs of unimaginable terror. Stingers swarm with heated vengeance, while Immolators burst in a fiery finale when you poke 'em enough. Watch your six for Pyroflies, impervious to standard rifle fire, and Bomberbees - dive bombers out to bring Bug booms!

Mark your calendars. Starship Trooper: Terran Command - Raising Hell is on the horizon, ready to land by the end of the year.

Service guarantees citizenship, and this is your chance to shine in the Mobile Infantry's ranks.
