Ashes of the Singularity: Escalation is a massive-scale real-time strategy game set after humanity has spread across the galaxy on the back of a technological singularity. You've grown powerful enough to direct vast armies over an entire world in service of an ever-expanding empire, but that dominance is now challenged by the Substrate, a new enemy bent on wiping out the human race, while renegade humans stake claims of their own.
You can side with the Post-Human Coalition or the Substrate and battle for galactic control across maps of unusual size and detail, made possible by Nitrous, described as the world's first native 64-bit RTS engine. That scale lets you wage war with thousands of units at once as the conflict escalates and you commit to a side.
Whatever mode you choose, strategy is decisive: you constantly decide which technologies to research, where to deploy your forces, how to manage your economy and which units to build. As an indie strategy title with simulation leanings, it supports ranked and unranked online multiplayer with friends, as well as solo skirmish and campaign play against a capable, non-cheating AI.
