While playing the game the player collects artifacts, rewards, and Xenoshards. While a normal soldier only needs one recruitment point, a mighty Hellfire swallows almost a quarter of the available points. The player has a specific number of recruitment points available, of which each unit costs a specific amount. Each army consists of one or more heroes and several smaller units. While the game features a story campaign that puts the player in the shoes of a human Lord Commander with pre-defined unit layouts and skill sets, the heart is the multiplayer-mode, featuring both Player-vs-Environment (= Coop) maps as well as Player-vs-Player-battles.īefore the start of a match the player chooses between the three factions and builds up a small army. WorldShift is a real-time strategy game with RPG elements. No one knows who those mysterious beings are, nor what they want all that is known is that the Shard has something to do with it. Meanwhile, the humans are no longer alone on the planet: a third faction called "The Cult" has appeared. They gained strange powers and abilities, and now call themselves the Tribes. Everyone else that didn't die from the plague mutated and became stronger through it. Instead, the survivors have built five so-called MegaCities, in which they live behind layers of steel and cement, only leaving the safety to gather much needed resources from the surrounding lands. The plague is still active and the human civilization, as it existed in the 21st century, is no more.
Several centuries have gone by since the Shard landed. The joy over this surprising turn of events didn't last long: now called "the plague", the aura of the ship began to change the planet and everything on it. Humanity wasn't able to change the course of the object and feared that a collision would destroy the planet but instead of ramming Earth, the object landed in north-east Siberia. The Shard emitted a deadly aura which changed and destroyed the essence of space and every life that came near it, and its destination was the planet Earth. At the end of the 21st century a colossal object appeared around the orbit of Pluto and scientists named it "The Shard" because of the way it looked.
