During today’s PC Gaming Show, Saber Interactive’s 3D Realms label and Knights Peak Interactive revealed that Tempest Rising, the highly anticipated, modern real-time strategy game, will officially launch on April 24, 2025, on PC via Steam. Experience in-depth base-building, resource management, and all-out warfare between unique factions in single-player and multiplayer in this true spiritual successor to the RTS classics of the ‘90s and 2000s.
Tempest Rising transports you to a battle-scarred 1997 in an alternate timeline where the Cuban Missile Crisis went nuclear. In the fallout from the war, a strange, red, electrical vine known as Tempest spread across the planet and changed the course of history, awakening an ancient race lying dormant known as the Veti, as teased in today’s new trailer.
Experience the gripping story of two unique factions across two epic campaigns with deep and rewarding gameplay that keeps the focus on strategy and skill, with built-in customization options that let you take on challenges your own way plus original music from legendary Command & Conquer composer Frank Klepacki.
Lead the highly mobile, advanced peacekeeping corps of the Global Defense Forces or the hard-hitting Tempest Dynasty in both single-player and multiplayer modes. Take full command of the battlefield as you build up your base, lead your armies into combat, and execute bold strategies to emerge victorious.
