Team-based, capital ship combat perfected. Dreadnought is a free to play, sci-fi warfare game that puts you in command of million-ton capital ships for tactical matches in space and over planetary surfaces. Plasma broadsides, Goliath nuclear torpedoes, and long-range Tesla cannons are all part of a broad arsenal you can employ against your enemies. The game is a free-to-play full game experience with no Pay-to-Win mechanics.
In this online multiplayer, action shooter the deliberate combat pace gives you time to think and react to an evolving battlefield. You will take into combat a selection of ships and loadouts which gives you the opportunity to respond to the opposing team’s fleet composition and strategy.
When your enemy is within weapons range the sky lights up with an assortment of lasers, missiles, and cannons that you must contend with. Your ship is equipped with an energy management system that gives your crew the ability to activate shields, increase engine speed, or put all power to weapons to increase your damage output. Through cunning ship configuration, effective energy management, ship positioning, and an intimate understanding of your weapon systems, you can lead your team to victory!
As you play, you earn credits and experience to unlock over 60 ships and over 150 weapons and modules across five tiers.
