Choose from multiple combat classes, including the Engineer, Warlock, Warlord, and Hunter, each with distinct weapons and abilities. Mix and match different suits to create your own combat style and take on hordes of enemies and powerful bosses. Explore vast futuristic battlefields using advanced mobility options such as hover boards, the Goliath mech, and the Valkyrie. The game also features multiplayer content including raids and strike missions, allowing players to take on challenging battles together.

Set across the solar system, players take on the role of a Guardian fighting against the threat of Nemesis in a war to protect humanity and reclaim the battlefield.
