'Battlezone: Combat Commander' Frees Up 3D Assets for Modders, Launches Competition

by Rainier on March 29, 2018 @ 2:09 p.m. PDT

Battlezone: Combat Commander remasters Battlezone II with slick new visuals, mod support, GOG & Steam cross-play multiplayer for up to 14 players, achievements, cloud saves and more.

A mysterious alien force threatens humanity itself. In this galaxy-wide war, you are in command of the resistance. Leading from the front, you take to the battlefield in thrilling first-person combat, piloting futuristic, customizable war machines including hover-tanks, colossal mech walkers, lightning-fast mortar-bikes and more.

But you don't just fight from the front - you are in total command! A gripping singleplayer campaign will test your mettle as you learn to plot strategy, construct bases, form your armies, deploy defenses and call in airstrikes. Achieving victory is no mean feat in this remarkable blend of classic real-time strategy and first-person action. To save humanity, you must prove yourself a true combat commander! 

Big Boat Interactive’s remaster will also offer cross-play online multiplayer across Steam and GOG, support for both online and LAN multiplayer, achievements, cloud saves, support for the game’s two-decade old modding scene, and many other refinements and tweaks.

UK studio Rebellion has made 1.6GB of 3D assets from Battlezone: Combat Commander available to all players on the game’s website. Eager modders can now access the 3D models and textures for all of the remastered buildings, characters and vehicles for FREE!

Rebellion wants to ensure modders can carry on creating superb new content for Battlezone: Combat Commander – and their creations might even earn them prizes!

A month-long modding competition, running until April 22nd, will give fans the opportunity to show off their skills! And, thanks to AMD and Chillblast, modders who create the very best content could win themselves a high performance Ryzen 5 CPU and a limited edition Chillblast PC case in beautiful Battlezone: Combat Commander livery. For more details, visit the official website.

Battlezone Combat Commander is available on  SteamGOG.com.
