Players control an elite strike team of futuristic soldiers, from shotgunners and snipers to grenadiers and machine-gunners. Matches take place on procedurally generated, virtual environments, or players can create their own, choosing the amount of rooms, walls, windows, cover and so forth in the creation area. All battlegrounds are fully-destructible.

Players plot paths and issue orders for their units, aiming to predict their opponent’s strategies or complete the match objectives. Both teams commit their plans for each turn, we call this ‘Priming’, and the outcome of that turn is then played out, resulting in awesome fire-fights, exploding walls and cinematic kill cams.

Mode 7 co-founder Paul Kilduff-Taylor revealed that Frozen Synapse 2 is being delayed until 2018.

"as you probably will have guessed, FS2 is delayed into 2018 - no surprise Christmas release from us. but we're working hard on it and the game is really starting to emerge properly now"
