The ultimate battle between man and machine will be fought on continent-spanning battlefields as Stardock launches Ashes of the Singularity II today with a launch discount on Steam and direct through Stardock. The sequel to the massive-scale real-time strategy game puts players in the middle of a war over humanity’s future, fought against enemies that have already surpassed it.
Set in the near future, Ashes of the Singularity II sees humanity in a fight for its own survival against dangerous enemies. The Post-Human Coalition, a faction of humans who have abandoned their physical bodies, has become the most technologically advanced power in the solar system. At the same time, a rogue artificial intelligence has built the AI Substrate, a machine civilization determined to secure its own future at any cost. Caught between them, humanity is losing ground.
The nations of Earth have set aside long-standing rivalries to form the United Earth Forces. Outmatched in technology and weaker unit for unit, the UEF must rely on what humanity still does best: large armies, disciplined infantry, and strategies drawn from thousands of years of military experience.
“To everyone who played the demo, joined the playtest, and helped shape Ashes of the Singularity II, thank you,” said Adrian Wright, Vice President of Entertainment at Stardock. “On November 10, humanity’s fight for survival comes home to Earth, and we can’t wait for you to join it.”
