During the PC Gaming Show: Most Wanted, Saber Interactive, 3D Realms, and Knights Peak Interactive announced that the RTS game inspired by classics, Tempest Rising, will officially be available for sale on April 24, 2025, on PC via Steam. The game is set in an alternate universe of Earth where the Cuban crisis became nuclear, and the action takes place in the war-torn year of 1997.
The mysterious red vine known as Tempest has spread across the world and awakened an ancient race known as the Veti. In the game, you will lead two unique factions in a battle for survival and dominance against this race. Tempest Rising is inspired by classics from the 90s and 2000s and combines elements of city building with management and action combat. Each faction offers unique harvesting systems, armies, and strategies, allowing for different play styles.
Additionally, Tempest Rising will feature two extensive single-player campaigns rich in missions and cinematic scenes, which will follow an intriguing story. Multiplayer fans will be able to enjoy various modes, including skirmish, custom, and ranked. Furthermore, the game's soundtrack includes original music by Frank Klepacki, the cult composer known for his work on the Command & Conquer series.
