Overview

Battleline: Steel Warfare Overview

Battleline: Steel Warfare is a 3D free-to-play strategic tank shooter that offers a collection of real-world tanks with researchable skills, upgradeable stats, and slots for items. The gameplay is a unique blend of real-time strategy and MOBAs, creating an intense PvP game reliant on skill. A game is won once a team pushes and holds the battle line at their enemy's base for 10 seconds, making it imperative to equip skills that damage and control enemies, as well as protect allies. The game's skills can be upgraded by using the Facilities system that dispatches researchers into advancing a particular skill, offering increasingly advanced builds as players rank up.

  • Huge Variety of Tanks to Choose – pick from over fifty distinct tanks modeled from history, each with their own strengths, weaknesses, and stats.
  • Upgrade and Customize Tanks – upgrade facilities and research skills to equip to your tank, purchase repair kits and speed boosts, and use upgrade points gained from combat to increase your tank's stats.
  • Ranked Gameplay and Matchmaking – increase your rank for rewards and a larger crew, allowing you to take on more difficult teams and fight for the top ranking on the boards.
  • Command Multiple Tanks – load out multiple tanks at once and command them side-by-side as Unit Commander, giving you a tactical advantage.
