Starship Troopers Ultimate Bug War makes me wish more games had FMV cutscenes

Starship Troopers is a film about some 90210-types who slowly get morphed into intergalactic fascists and dead-eyed instruments of war. There are bugs and zero empathy. It is soaked in satire and has the subtlety of a brick through your window, and Starship Troopers Ultimate Bug War manages to turn that dial up a little more.

Starship Troopers: Ultimate Bug War! Review


Video game history is rife with disappointing movie adaptations. As a general rule, a game that shares a title with a film is almost guaranteed to be a garbage-tier cash grab. So too is anything with the words “Starship Troopers” in the title, made after 1997. For a studio to produce an exception, all they need to do is make something adequate.





When I previewed Starship Troopers: Ultimate Bug War last month, I was mildly shocked. It wasn’t just adequate — it was pretty good. I came away expecting a solid, story-light retro shooter that tone-matches Paul Verhoeven’s satirical masterpiece.









It had everything a fan could want: hordes of arachnids to explode into glorious pixelated bursts of rainbow-colored ooze; swelling orchestral music to complement the patriotic battle cries and death rattles of my teammates; Casper Van Dien in battle dress uniform. What I appreciated most was that it didn’t seem too concerned with the story. Only vibes.

For the First Time EVER, Bug Mode Allows You to Fight as the Arachnid Menace!

[p]To fight the Bug, we must understand the Bug - We can ill afford another Klendathu! For the first time in history, Starship Troopers: Ultimate Bug War! will let you experience the fight as our opponent - the Arachnid menace.[/p][p][/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p][/p][p]Our teams - fully supported by FedDev and Games & Theory - are proud to announce our evolutionary Bug Mode - an advancement which will allow our Troopers to experience the battle from the Arachnid side - and the better we understand the Bug, the better we can kill the Bug.[/p][p][/p][p]The Federation knows how hard our Troopers are working to deliver a brighter tomorrow. So Bug Mode will be included for ALL Troopers who join the fight in Starship Troopers: Ultimate Bug War!. We expect the best, and we give the best for our Citizens![/p]
  • [p]Meet the Assassin Bug! - The newly-discovered Assassin Bug provides a formidable new foe on the battlefield. With the ability to change between three different attack forms - Warrior, Hopper and Tanker variants - training within Bug Mode is vital for Troopers to fully understand and counteract the Assassin Bug’s varied abilities.[/p]
  • [p]Explore Four Expansive Environments! - Much like our regular training experience, Bug Mode allows Troopers to explore each of our four Bug Mode areas as you conquer individual Terror Zones and experience how the Assassin Bug could cripple Federation outposts. Unlock new Bug Mode experiences by completing human campaign missions, and get inside the head of this new Arachnid threat.[/p]
  • [p]Kill Them All! - As the Assassin Bug, Troopers will need to decimate each Terror Zone in the area to progress - confronting the firepower of the mighty Mobile Infantry to defeat our freedom-fighting Troopers and destroy vital operational resources.[/p]
  • [p]Lead the Arachnid Strategy! - During each mission, the Assassin Bug can use pheromone spray to direct nearby allied Bugs, as well as use its ability to recruit new Bugs for the fight at Bug Nests. Learn how the Assassin Bug could turn the tide of battle, if it weren’t for the top Federal Armed Services training provided to our Troopers![/p]
[p][/p][p][/p][p] [/p][p][/p][h2]Become - Understand - Defeat![/h2][p]Learning the capabilities of the Assassin Bug is critical to Federal advancement within the Arachnid Quarantine Zone. Each of the Assassin’s three attack forms comes with its own unique abilities, and only by understanding each of these will our Troopers be ready to counteract its insidious ways.[/p][p][/p][h3]The Warrior Form[/h3][p]The default state for the Assassin Bug. Similar to the classic Arachnid Warrior, this form still poses a significant threat with razor-sharp pincers and agile movement.[/p][p]While in the Warrior Form, the Assassin Bug will regain a small amount of health from every Trooper it takes down. This form will also allow the Assassin Bug to use the Charge ability - slicing through anything in its path as it dashes forward.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][h3]The Hopper Form[/h3][p]Transitioning into the Hopper Form will allow the Assassin Bug to take to the skies, surveilling its surroundings and analyzing the landscape. This will allow the Assassin Bug to easily identify all destructible buildings, as well as Bug nests and pheromone trails.[/p][p]Flight within the Hopper Form enables the Assassin Bug to identify targets within each Terror Zone as well as allowing the Assassin’s Divebomb ability - with destructive landing impact for buildings and Troopers in the immediate area.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]
[/p][h3]The Tanker Form[/h3][p]As a special variant, the Tanker Form requires a significant amount of energy, and the Assassin Bug will need to build this up before using this devastating form.[/p][p]The Tanker Form increases the Assassin’s health and armour, as well as the damage caused by its regular attacks. Tanker Form also shifts the Assassin Bug’s internal organs, allowing for the distinctive flame spray attack as well as this form’s special ability - the Headbutt - causing significant damage to the intended target.[/p][p]
[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][h3]Jump in, Troopers![/h3][p]Starship Troopers: Ultimate Bug War! deploys on March 16th, and we need all the Troopers we can get to hold the line against this latest threat. The Assassin Bug poses an unprecedented threat to our heroic Mobile Infantry Troopers, and the evolutionary Bug Mode is a vital effort to understand and defeat this enhanced Arachnid.[/p][p]Would you like to know more?[/p][p][/p][h3]Wishlist on Steam[/h3][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p][p]And don’t forget to follow official platforms, including our Federal developers, Auroch Digital and Dotemu.
