Slitherine Games and The Aristocrats have announced today that Starship Troopers – Terran Command will not be marching onto PC on its originally scheduled release date of March 31st.
Instead, Starship Troopers – Terran Command will now be released on June 16th, 2022. The reason given, according to the presser, is that the development team wants to use the extra time to further polish the game and go through some more rounds of bug fixing that will make a “significant” difference to the final product.
It’s a shame, as always, but it’s always better to wait a little longer rather than spend release day downloading endless updates and wishing you’d spent your money on something else.

Deploy your units at strategic locations to cover vital choke points and gain superior firepower through tactical use of elevation levels. Be wary, however, that battle mechanics such as True Line of Sight and True Line of Fire also allow Bugs to lay ambushes around every corner, as they are well known for their use of surprise attacks and deception.
Units & Abilities
An expansive range of unique units, weapons, and special abilities are at the disposal of M.I. commanders. Infantry squads armed with Morita Assault Rifles and MX-90 Fragmentation Grenades form the mainstay of your forces. Rocket Troopers deliver deadly payloads with pin-point accuracy while Engineers are vital to shore up defensive positions with MG turrets, barricades, and minefields. As a campaign progresses, technological breakthroughs unlock the true potential of the Federation’s arsenal with E-Pulse rifles, TAC Fighter airstrikes, heavily armed Marauder mechs, and many more developments optimized for spraying Bug ichor across the battlefield.
