Foxhole
Foxhole is a massively multiplayer game where you will work with hundreds of players to shape the outcome of a persistent online war. Every individual soldier is a player that contributes to the war effort through logistics, base building, reconnaissance, combat, and more.
What it feels like
Sustained pressure from opposing forces and resource scarcity maintains edge-of-seat tension. The game takes its cooperative military simulation seriously without irony.
What it's about
Armed forces, warfare, and military operations form the entire setting and gameplay. The logistics, attrition, and coordination cost of war is emphasized over spectacle.
How it plays
Economy, supply lines, base placement, and army coordination are core strategic layers. Constructing and expanding fortifications and supply depots is a central activity. Individual soldiers engage in aiming and firing ranged weapons as core moment-to-moment action.
How it looks and sounds
The isometric or overhead camera emphasizes strategy and spatial awareness.
How it's structured
Thousands of players shape a persistent online war in a shared world, defining an MMO experience. The war continues whether or not individual players are present, with an ongoing conflict state. Players are divided into opposing factions working toward collective victory conditions.
