Squad

Squad is a tactical team-based FPS that prioritizes strategy and coordination over raw firepower. Drawing inspiration from modern military shooters, it combines the fast-paced action of arcade games with the strategic depth of military simulation, creating a uniquely authentic combat experience where communication and teamwork determine victory.

Command your squad to victory through intelligent tactics and real-world coordination. As a Squad Leader, you gain access to powerful map tools for positioning infantry, constructing defensive structures, and coordinating team movements. Your primary responsibility is maintaining squad cohesion while executing efficient battle plans adapted to each scenario. Build fortified bases with machine gun nests, anti-tank emplacements, turrets, and missile systems to counter larger threats. Deploy HESCO barriers, razor wire, and sandbags to fortify key positions and control the battlefield strategically.

Communication is built into the core experience through an integrated VoIP system, eliminating the need for third-party applications. Talk directly with your entire team without leaving the game, enabling the real-time coordination that separates squads from lone wolves.

Join 40-versus-40 multiplayer matches across massive, real-world locations featuring intense firefights and dynamic combat scenarios. Select from authentic military factions including the British Army, US Army, Russian Ground Forces, Irregular Militia, and Insurgents—each with unique arsenals, vehicles, and audio commands that bring personality to your gameplay. Operate specialized vehicles including tanks, convoy trucks, and gun-mounted platforms to dominate the battlefield.

The Hired Guns update introduces Western Private Military Contractors (WPMC), an unconventional faction that trades standard military structure for speed and precision firepower. WPMC deploys across all maps with three specialized units: the Murk Water Air Wing providing aerial close-air support via the Loach CAS helicopter—Squad's first official helicopter variant—the Manticore Security Task Force combining armor and infantry for objective control, and the Overwatch 6 Patrol Group executing rapid-strike tactics. Three exclusive WPMC vehicles expand tactical options: the CPV Armored Car balancing protection with mobility, the revolutionary CAS Loach helicopter, and the mine-resistant M1117 Armored Car.

Track your performance through an enhanced After-Action Report that delivers detailed statistics, highlights improvement areas, and reveals team-wide metrics to refine your strategic approach. The officially integrated Squidbots mod improves server population matching for faster, smoother matches.

Squad demands tactical thinking, squad leadership, and genuine teamwork. Master these elements and emerge victorious.
