Relic Entertainment, the studio behind Company of Heroes, is venturing into a new strategic landscape with Earth vs. Mars, a smaller-scale, turn-based strategy game launching this summer on PC via Steam. Prepare for an interplanetary showdown as you defend Earth from a Martian invasion by harnessing the power of the Splice-O-Tron—a device capable of creating bizarre and powerful creature-human hybrids. Imagine commanding a Squirrel-Cow or a Human-Rhino against the Martian threat! The gameplay draws inspiration from the classic Nintendo DS title, Advance Wars.
The Martian invasion isn't a surprise attack; for decades, they've secretly visited Earth, abducting humans and animals to harvest their atomic essence. Now, their full-scale invasion is upon us, and a ragtag group of commanders must lead Earth's resistance. Players will command Earth's military forces against advanced Martian saucers, grav-tanks, and elite alien warriors in a desperate fight for survival.

Earth vs. Mars offers a robust single-player campaign with over 30 missions, online multiplayer where you can play as either Earth or Mars, a VS Mode for testing your skills against the AI, and a map editor to unleash your creativity.
Relic CEO Justin Dowdeswell states, “We are excited to bring a Relic Twist to the Advance Wars style of gameplay, infusing some Relic DNA, while harkening back to some of our earlier titles. Relic Entertainment recently announced a new strategy: Alongside continuing to work on the traditional RTS titles that we’re known for, we’re also going to work on smaller Indie style games in order to explore new sub-genres, experiment, get our creative juices going, and release games more frequently.” Add it to your Steam wishlist today!
