Johnny Rico will be commanding the [b]single-player [/b]game mode to be included in our 1.0 launch, alongside new enemies, locations and more. As for what players can expect from this experience, you’ll be tapped for an elite spec ops group within the Mobile Infantry. Players will find themselves following the orders of living legend [b]General John “Johnny” Rico[/b], testing their mettle against hordes of enemy Arachnids with the aid of three original NPC allies to prove themselves worthy of selection.
This new game mode is focused on providing a unique single-player experience. It offers 25 distinct missions and a variety of unique PvE combat scenarios across various environments, and we’re looking to follow up with a second chapter after the 1.0 launch. Additionally, in the coming weeks, We will share more information regarding Starship Troopers: Extermination—including details about the latest update.
