Quick summary
Shattered Galaxy is a free, massively multiplayer online tactical role-playing game that blends real-time strategic decision-making with character progression. It puts an emphasis on battlefield tactics and evolving technology rather than casual, pick-up play.
Life in the galaxy
With thousands of active players, the game world is constantly changing. Player actions—alliances, rivalries and long-running vendettas—shape the ongoing conflict, so standing tactics quickly become obsolete. As new equipment and technologies appear, you’ll need to revise your approach rather than rely on a single winning setup.
