Lead your Space Commandos in a thrilling revival of turn-based squad tactics. Featuring in-depth skill and combat systems, many game modes and inspired by games like UFO/XCOM, Space Hulk, and Aliens. Uncover the truth behind colony MC83-A's demise and join the USC in protecting humanity.
Engage on the battlefield with hours of gameplay already available. Enter a deep strategical experience that includes multiple game modes, customizable commando units and deadly alien hostiles to defeat. Master combat and find the perfect combination of skills in order to repel the alien threat.
You will have access to four special operations and an endless list of randomly generated missions available in Single Mission mode providing a strong replayability. Community feedback during Early Access will allow us to improve and update the current features and any upcoming additions to the full release version. The final version will include a full, open-ended campaign mode with a non-linear storyline.
[h3]Assemble the Ultimate Squad![/h3]
A well-advised marine needs to be prepared for every situation! Fully adapt your marines to the task ahead with a class-free system, assign and change their passive abilities and gears depending on your objectives and the threat you are about to face.
[h3]Make the best of the varied weapons and tools![/h3]
You can equip your marines with a large set of items. Use melee and ranged weapons with various perks and types of ammunition to eliminate the enemies. But don’t forget other useful equipment: hacking tools, mines, turrets, and more to help you survive and complete your mission.
[h3]Interact with your surroundings![/h3]
Explore and battle in entirely destructible and interactive settings. Reorganize the battleground to your advantage, lay traps, build barricades, avoid and exploit environmental hazards and more.
[h3]Play multiple game modes![/h3]
Fully customize your experience and challenges with a wide range of settings, from the environment to map size, difficulty level, objectives and more with the Single Mission mode. Choose how you want to play: solo or co-op? Team up in co-op multiplayer modes and play in classic hot seat or use Steam's “Remote Play Together” feature to bring a fellow soldier along online.
Your troops can exploit every resource and opportunity to overcome a dire situation. However, preparing your squad is equally important. To increase your chances of success, gather your marines, assign them roles and abilities, gear them up, and store supplies of medicine, armor, and ammo. Examine the terrain; each map has its own advantages and disadvantages. The future of humanity is at stake, so be alert, focus on your objectives and leave no one behind!
Each mission's outcome is greatly influenced by your tactics and capacity to hold your ground in battle.
You are on your own, soldiers. In space, no one can hear you scream.

Why Early Access?
Marines, get ready! USC: Counterforce will be in Early Access on July 25th!
Explore a thrilling sci-fi universe requiring tactical skills to defeat deadly aliens threatening the fate of humankind.
USC: Counterforce is a retro squad tactics turn-based game where you lead a team of marines on a planetary body M-8322 to investigate and destroy alien forces. Each marine can be assigned unique skills and passive abilities that can change the battle's course.
The depth of the combat system allows you to exploit every opportunity and element to overturn critical situations. Squad preparation is crucial, leave no stone unturned or you will fail.
[h3]What is an Early Access release and why?[/h3]
Early Access is the stage of a game's anticipated release that is still under development. This means that you can buy, own, and play the game as it develops. The game will evolve with your feedback, and you will actively contribute to its enhancement and final shape.
The game's Early Access version already has several hours of gameplay and strong replayability. An Early Access release gives us the chance to continue developing the game alongside our community, because your feedback is essential to making the best game possible. With USC: Counterforce, we want to create a unique experience, and who better to join us on the journey than the players themselves? We are really thrilled to enter a new step in the development cycle and keep working with you, our community, as we did with our playtests.
[h3]What will be in the game at launch?[/h3]
The game already includes all of the core tactical features. The game will be regularly updated and more content will be added during Early Access. Thanks to your feedback, we will also further improve various mechanics and make balance adjustments. For the final version of the game, we plan to release a full, open-ended Campaign mode with an adaptive storyline.
The Single Mission game mode has an infinite number of procedurally generated missions, you’ll never play the same mission twice! There are also four special Operations game modes, providing hours of playtime.
The game will be available in English and Simplified Chinese during Early Access. The full release will then be localized in other yet to be determined languages.
However, please do expect occasional bugs, unexpected behavior, and minor gameplay balance issues that will be fixed as they arise during development.
You are on your own, soldiers. In space, no one can hear you scream.
