Squad is an immersive online multiplayer tactical first-person shooter developed by Offworld Industries. Designed to emphasize teamwork and realism, the game challenges players to work cohesively in dynamic combat environments where strategic thinking and communication are key.
Class-Based Multiplayer
Choose from over a dozen class kits, each tailored to specific battlefield roles. Whether you opt for a classic role like medic or sniper, or take on specialized tasks such as reconnaissance or vehicle management, each class is crucial to your squad’s success. Your performance and adherence to orders will determine your effectiveness and contribution to the mission.
Chain of Command
In Squad, individual heroics take a backseat to unit cohesion. The squad leader (SL) is pivotal, responsible for coordinating with other units, establishing respawn points, and overseeing the construction of forward operating bases (FOBs). The effectiveness of your squad depends heavily on the SL’s leadership. Whether you aspire to lead or prefer to follow, your role within the squad is crucial to achieving mission objectives.
Vehicles
Combat isn’t just about foot soldiers; vehicles play a significant role in Squad. Your SL can request various vehicles, including armored trucks, motorbikes, APCs, and even helicopters, to enhance mobility and support the team. Vehicles are limited and shared among squads, so use them wisely and ensure they are effectively deployed to meet your unit’s needs.
Dynamic Frontlines
The battlefield is ever-changing, with your squad constantly advancing and adapting. Rally points serve as temporary respawn locations, while FOBs are fortified positions that help secure strategic areas. Your squad leaders will manage these assets to push the frontlines and maintain control over key territories.
Game Modes
Squad features multiple game modes that test your tactical skills:
- Advance and Secure: Capture and hold control points in a specific sequence.
- Insurgency: Destroy enemy weapon caches using intel gathered from defeating foes.
- Territory Control: Reclaim land from the opposing team within a time limit.
- Conquest: Capture flags while managing your respawn tickets.
No Handholding
Squad embraces a minimalist approach to HUD and visual aids. There are no minimaps, on-screen indicators, or name tags for squad members. The game relies on your ability to communicate, strategize, and rely on your squad leader’s directions to navigate and succeed in the battlefield.
Prepare for an intense and authentic tactical experience in Squad, where teamwork, strategy, and clear communication are your greatest allies.
