Survive the swarm.
Climb the ranks.

Top-down mech action with two distinct challenges. Fight swarms and extract with your loot in Survivors, solo or with a friend. Face other pilots in PvP and compete for your place in the ranked leaderboards.

01 — Choose your challenge

Two modes. Different stakes.

Solo or co-op · 1–2 players

Survivors

Fight swarms and bosses in hostile sectors, alone or with a co-op partner. Gather equipment, decide when to push further and extract to bring your loot home. Every deployment is a new survival challenge.

Competitive arenas · 2v2 & 1v1v1

PvP

Face other pilots in round-based arena combat. Coordinate with a teammate in 2v2 or fight for yourself in a three-player free-for-all. Play ranked to compete for rating, divisions and leaderboard positions.

Ranked PvP

From placements to the leaderboard

Establish your rating through placement matches, compete within your division and climb the seasonal rankings. Results and opponent strength shape your rating. Track your standing against other pilots; custom matches stay separate and do not affect your rank.

02 — The combat

Pilot the mech.
Control the fight.

SteelGuard puts you in direct control of a combat mech. Aim while moving, keep enemies at the right distance and reposition before you get surrounded. Your decisions in the fight matter as much as what you bring into it.

Two modes give that combat different stakes: in Survivors, stay alive long enough to bring your loot home. In PvP, read your opponents, win arena rounds and work your way up the competitive ranks.

03 — How you play

Movement. Timing. Teamwork.

01

Aim under pressure

Keep your weapons on target while steering clear of incoming fire. Track opponents, pick your moment to attack and avoid standing still when the fight closes in.

02

Control the distance

Close the gap when you have the advantage. Break line of sight when you need breathing room. Weapon range and your position shape every encounter.

03

Fight together

Take on Survivors with a co-op partner, or coordinate your attacks in 2v2 PvP. Watch each other’s angles and focus your pressure instead of fighting two separate battles.

04

Survive the swarm

Keep moving as enemies crowd the battlefield. Make space, deal with immediate threats and stay ready for bosses. A successful run is about getting out alive, not just getting more kills.

05

Know when to extract

In Survivors, collect equipment and decide how much danger to take on before leaving. Extract to bring your haul home and prepare for the next deployment.

06

Learn. Adapt. Climb.

In PvP, learn how your opponents move and change your approach between rounds. Ranked results shape your rating; custom matches let you play without putting that rating on the line.
