It is a momentous occasion. Not only did I win 3rd place in the Sergeant of the Year Awards. I actually made a new friend. I KNOW RIGHT! I now have two! This guy is called Diggs - he really does have some swagger. Honestly, I have NEVER met a more boisterous mining bot. We both have that personality trait in common as well as those chiselled cheek bones. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/31917575/58edda81a006f3c4a5f3e7ce33c2b8d23290d0cd.jpg Yeah that's right, Diggs is the robot, and the guy with the shiny hand is his brother, Elvis. He was given a mysterious glove by his mother with which he can control the Miasma. EXCITING STUFF! So why not join these two brothers (and now MY NEW BESTIE) on a quest across a post-apocalyptic wasteland to find the answers they want - which may change the course of human history forever.

If you can't, you are looking into the wrong eyes. Those glassy grey eyes over there belong to Doris, war hardy veteran of the catering department.

We have won hearts and minds, we have won with 'witty bants' about space marines on the the cover of GQ Magazine, we won over the whole of the mars Gen Z crew with our Condatis MPop Group's 2023 world tour - soon to be over taking the legendary Kpop band, BTS aka 'Backup Tactical Squad!'

So to stop you from 'crying at the discounteque' - we have marked it all down for you below! 🔻 SAVE 60% on Red Solstice 2: Survivors 🔻 SAVE 30% on the Season Pass 🔻 SAVE 30% on ALL the DLCs So feel like a badass, and pick up a grannie, erm I mean a Red Solstice 2: Survivors bargain today! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/31917575/3e48252e92bf0f1d9026b12e92a3b4b90c982be4.jpg https://store.steampowered.com/app/768520/Red_Solstice_2_Survivors/ https://store.steampowered.com/app/1751750/Red_Solstice_2_Survivors__Season_Pass/ https://store.steampowered.com/app/2012090/Red_Solstice_2_Survivors__MERCS/ {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/31917575/87e06fbd3d882788c9e3a140421c004831d08736.jpgIt's Our 2 Year Anniversary! NEW CLASS GIFT!Jun 16, 2023 - Community AnnouncementsMARINES!!! Get that ass of yours up from whatever it is you're doing and stop. That's right, you heard me, stop whatever it is you are doing. Whether that's in the middle of washing the dishes, whilst feeding a starving possum or if you are attending a mars peace conference. It is that time once again... TO CELEBRATE! You have been with us for another year! That's right, it is Red Solstice 2: Survivors 2nd Anniversary! yep. I know that's is longer that some celebrity marriages. So of course we want to have a party, and how better to celebrate than to bring in the party people themselves - the Condatis Soldiers aka the Condatis Assault Class! This lot KNOW how to party and you will now be able to 'party' with them in Skirmish mode. Now some would say Condatis Soldiers are a liability - always running away, hoarding supplies, cracking jokes in the face of danger (sounds like me) - but honestly, this just sounds like my best buddy Rory after a night out on the town. So think of it as having your own best buddy named Rory too! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/31917575/83df512e20d33fd51d20368eeac89172b2b43ce4.png Now the Condatis Soldiers come with the... well, most ABSOLUTE basics of military training. They can hold their breath when it rains a little, they can hold objects with just one hand and they can understand the simplest of instructions. Just for the love of Dog, do not give them a microwave meal to cook - that will be game over for all of us... The frontline survival rates for these folk are around 20 minutes, but please don't go telling them that to their face. But if they do ask (sometimes they can start to think things), just tell them it's at least 47 to 49 years, but for some reason your friend Bob all of a sudden decided to retire to the countryside... yesterday. Rinse and repeat, insert new name. They never ask for their address... So in a nutshell, this is what you lucky lucky people are getting! Class: Condatis Assault Suit: Modified Solstice Mark II Pros: Light armor, large inventory of 8 slots, hybrid class Cons: low life expectancy, basically target practice for those cheeky Howell-Barrex SO HAPPY SECOND ANNIVERSARY MARINES!! Enjoy the gift! Keep doing us proud and keep fighting the good fight... AND NOW GET BACK TO MAIMING STROL! https://store.steampowered.com/app/768520/Red_Solstice_2_Survivors/ Red Solstice 2: Survivors 2.98 Patch NotesMay 17, 2023 - Community AnnouncementsMarines!

Our Special Halloween In-Game event is back!

Marines, DISMISS!!!!!The Road Ahead - Red Solstice 2: Survivors RoadmapOct 6, 2022 - Community AnnouncementsHello Marines! Now that all the DLCs have released we have been extensively gathering all the feedback and suggestions from both discord and steam forums. GOOD JOB! Your words can make a difference! Here are some changes we plan to introduce in the following months. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/31917575/bf351d8adb48de5bc6629cc6792341a2b720f6c7.png Point Shop - playing the game and wining missions will award you with points which you can use to "buy" engineering items from campaign and use them in your skirmish matches More modes for skirmish - reduce number of monsters, but increase their hp, etc. More types of special designed fixed waves - currently there is only one fixed wave option. The idea is that each map gets a designed fixed wave focused on a certain playstyle or theme Better communication and fireteam control - we all know that in-game pinging, mini-map control drawing and communication could be on a higher level, so we plan to address that Potential redesign of some existing boss mechanics and improvement of the same ones - some monsters and some bosses have bugs or are not impactful in the way we want it to be. We would like them to define the gameplay a bit more {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/31917575/8fc7645eb927e2041fdf9964cd3e872b843d63ea.jpg Defend the wall map in skirmish - a lot of reports have been mentioned that players want to hold the wall against numerous hordes - this might be possible soon Additional campaign options and potentially New Game+ - ability to define your campaign starting conditions Infinite waves mode - ability to play ...well indefinitely if you think u can survive! This will include finishing all primary missions in the game in the gauntlet mode. We are still thinking of the best way to do it and how we should do it Prestige - a long time awaited prestige system will arrive More medals - more medals, such as Aetriden Medal of Honor will be planned Rebalancing of skills - certain skills and classes will get rebalanced over time, using the feedback we have collected Optimization - plan is to further optimize the game and reduce loading times - so we will be actively working on it Bugfixes - we are actively resolving reported bugs with each patch {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/31917575/038c729b7bf0c41d7a229abc72142e97c1dde113.jpg It’s possible that these updates are subject to change – but we want to thank the community for all the suggestions and feedback, and we appreciate your continued support.SALE NOW ON! | 505 GAMES PUBLISHER SALE!Sep 15, 2022 - Community AnnouncementsAttention Marines!!!

I want you to give yourself a pat on the back! You have managed to last one whole year in the fight against the STROL, among other things. That’s right, it’s our 1-year anniversary, and you should be gosh darn proud. Maybe not you at the back. No, you don’t deserve to be proud, not after you left that STROL cheek in my bed. I never even knew STROL had cheeks, but apparently, they do. And I won't mention from what hemisphere that cheek came from. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/31917575/ea86eedfcb499ad129ad71b154668d21aa2831e6.jpg To celebrate Red Solstice 2: Survivors first anniversary, my initial thought of course, went to cake. But then I remembered you all had churro addiction, so I swiftly removed that idea and replaced it with more hard work! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/31917575/3ff763030c91d84650e4cffa8b0d5e4c7972410e.jpg I am not a complete party pooper – we have decorated the armoury for you and invited a new, huge, scary friend along!
