About NS2: Combat

✦ AI summary

Pick from seven alien and marine lifeforms to fight across five maps in fast-paced 15-minute matches where you can join or leave anytime without breaking the game. This indie shooter blends asymmetrical team combat with a deep progression system and mod support, born from the Natural Selection 2 community and fully standalone.

NS2: Combat includes seven different player-controllable lifeforms, a vault full of weapons and abilities, a stats system, full modding support and five original maps. Games last around 15 minutes and players may join and leave at any time without disrupting gameplay.

Faultline Games is a game developer that started as a mod team. Our indie-publisher, Unknown Worlds, also started as a mod team. NS2: Combat evolved from the modding community of Natural Selection 2 to become a standalone game. It does not require Natural Selection 2 in order to play.

If you liked Natural Selection 2, forget about this game, not only cuz there are no players that sadly it is kind of important, but because it was a project that was abandoned extremely early. As of almost May 2026 playing it alone grants no achievements, and it just wasn't fun... Few things here and there that i would rather just play NS2 and die against the 2 unbalanced Alien mechanics in the last patches and actually have fun rather than this xD It does have one thing better over the original, and it is that as a soldier, when you unlock a weapon you always spawn with it... there was always something about Marines that fell short when having to constantly face Onos and their Gorgeous ;D I don't really know what i expected, not much but, this was just sadly a bad idea not well executed. Just if you are curous, check out Natural Selection 2.

It's fun, even playing against the bots. Though I still don't quite know how to unlock the 'Classified' weapons for the marines. If anyone knows, please share.

Fun concept, but not worth your time. No players, it's dead.
