Overview
- Earth vs. Mars is a turn-based strategy game where players can command Earth's military or Martian forces in battles featuring unique hybrid units created through genetic splicing.
- The game includes a single-player campaign with over 30 missions, online multiplayer, a versus mode against AI, and a map editor for custom scenarios.
- Players can utilize a 'Splice-O-Tron' mechanic to combine human and animal DNA, creating units like cheetah-flies, squirrel-cows, and rhino soldiers for tactical advantages.
- Earth vs. Mars is the first project from Relic Labs, a new initiative allowing the studio to experiment with smaller-scale games alongside its traditional RTS titles.
- Relic Entertainment, now an independent studio after separating from Sega, aims to release games more frequently while continuing to support its larger franchises.
