Squad - Steam Game

New in Update 2.15 - Australia Joins The Fight!

The latest free update for Squad brings the Australian Army to the battle as our eighth faction. This light infantry-focused faction has a Bullpup primary build and a unique Combat Engineer split to offer players expanded options on the field. This new faction gives Squad players access to a blend of new, existing USA/GB/CAF equipment, and modified assets including 9 vehicles, 16 pieces of weapons and infantry gear, and a new F/A-18 Rocket Strike Commander asset.

Alongside the new Australian faction comes 3 new deployable and new camouflage netting improvements that help conceal soldiers using the Forward Operating Base for cover.

Squad is a large-scale combined arms multiplayer first-person shooter emphasizing combat realism through communication, team play, emphasizing strong squad cohesion mechanics as well as larger-scale coordination, tactics, and planning.

It features 20 massive maps, vehicle-based combined arms gameplay, and player-constructed bases to create a heart-thumping, visceral gaming experience with split-second decision-making in real-world scale firefights.

50 versus 50

Pitting several conventional and unconventional factions against each other, Squad aims to create authentic combat experiences utilizing a sense of being a part of something greater than yourself. Pick a side and become a member of a nine-man squad with your team to face off against 50 other players in intense, large combat environments. Squad features the US Army, Russian Ground Forces, British Army, Canadian Armed Forces, Australian Army, the Middle Eastern Alliance, and Irregular Militia and Insurgents with their own unique arsenals.

Building System

Do you hear the sound of rumbling and grinding gears? Do you fear the inevitability of your short life at the end of a T-72 Main Battle Tank barrel? Get your Squad Leader to place down an anti-tank guided missile system and remove that pesky tank from the battlefield. In Squad, we provide numerous methods to adapt to the ever-changing needs of the battlespace. Place down emplacements like HMGs and AT guns, or build up a fortified position with sandbags, HESCOs, and razor wire.

Communication

The pinnacle of the Squad experience, communication is a soldier's best tool in effectively engaging the enemy. To help facilitate navigating the complexity of communication on the battlefield, we provide a world-class in-game VoIP system that allows you to talk to other soldiers locally, internally in your squad, between squad leaders, or squad leaders to the Commander. Also, we provide a plethora of other tools that fire team leaders and squad leaders may use to inform their squads and teams, such as map tools and in-world marking tools.
