Description

At the start of the game, the war is not going well the bugs are rampaging across Hesperus - a planet perilously close to Earth. Colonised by man, Hesperus was once a haven of earthly tranquillity. Now, it is a terrifying battleground where the weaknesses of an implacable foe must be discovered and exploited

  • 19 different types of non-humanoid enemy bugs to encounter.
  • License that covers the whole Starship Troopers universe. The books, , films and TV series are just the beginning.
  • Voice-over commentary by Casper van Dien, aka Johnny Rico, now the general who introduces each mission.
