From the developers of Warhammer 40,000: Gladius, ZEPHON is a post-apocalyptic 4X strategy game built on Proxy’s unique tactical combat system. Guide survivors through a turbulent future, navigating unexpected disasters, eldritch horror and cyberpunk monstrosities. What will you do to survive?
Gameplay
Control the survivors of humanity in a near-future apocalypse of alien origin. Pick a path between the indifferent abominations of the Voice and the uncaring automata of ZEPHON, with city management, turn-based tactical combat, unholy research, diplomatic maneuvering, and branching narrative quests. Gather your allies and pick your actions wisely.
Battle
- Command over 50 unique units in battle—each with its own graphics, voice overs, weapon systems and sets of traits and abilities.
- Plan out optimal build orders amongst 3 asymmetric paths—Human, Voice and Cyber—or combine them in surprising ways.
- Deploy tactical operations—interference protocols, otherworldly hymns of decay and even nuclear weapons—to gain an advantage.
- Combat occurs on the main map—no switching modes and having to auto-resolve battles because they drag on too long.
- Use distinctive leader abilities in fully-featured multiplayer—with or against your friends.
Build
- Find and grow your cities by constructing buildings on tiles—everything you build needs space.
- Optimize an empire-wide economy with 11 tiered resources—allowing you to specialize cities by their placement.
- Recognize each building by its appearance—3 architecture styles to accompany your chosen path.
- Fortify key strategic points to prevent enemies from assailing your positions—sometimes defense is the best defense.
