A game that pretty much anyone who remembers it that was thought to be lost to time has surprisingly made a comeback to Steam after 25 years. The game was first launched in 1999 and was owned by Sony Online Entertainment.
After the game’s long break, the game has finally returned to Steam and players are flocking to it which isn’t a big surprise as when the game was out 25 years ago it was the most popular online shooter. That was partly because it was the first and only one at the time.
Saying that Infantry was only popular because it was the only one isn’t true the game was a unique MMO game that supported over 140,000 gamers, an unprecedented figure which undoubtedly placed it way ahead of its time.
Now rebranded as “Free Infantry” the people behind the game claim that the game “still maintains its original charm and challenging gameplay.” So far it’s still too soon to tell if the game is as good as people remember it to be.
One point in the game’s favor is the complete lack of microtransactions which is almost unheard of in today’s ageing landscape.
Step into the ultimate squad warfare experience in this real-time, fast-paced tactical top-down shooter. Use momentum to your advantage and to your enemy’s detriment as your bullets and explosive shrapnel ricochet using FreeInfantry’s Newtonian physics model. Plan your attack from the shadows and ambush your enemy thanks to the Infantry’s real-time Fog of War visibility model.
FreeInfantry features several zone types, providing players with exciting and varying experiences in this sci-fi military universe that starts with the war between the Titan Militia and Collective Military.
Fight alongside your team or as a solo trooper in Io’s Landing against a neverending tide of enemy bots in escalating challenge modes. Join a squad and test your skills and strategy in the competitive deathmatch league that’s 40-plus seasons running. Survive against the swarm of aliens in Bug Hunt.
