A direct successor to the 2D multiplayer shooter Soldat which took the Internet and LAN parties by storm in the early 2000's.
Soldat 2 aims at recreating the basic Soldat gameplay experience with fresh and enhanced content. Additionally there will be customization of every part of the game, including procedurally generated levels, game rules and modes, weapons, vehicles, structures and a custom battle simulator sandbox. Soldat 2 also strives to become a powerful platform for custom created content, mods and other Soldat-like games.

Early Access Features:

online multiplayer (with dedicated servers)
custom battle sandbox
procedurally generated or designed levels
famous flow-based movement
realistic weapons and military equipment
ragdoll physics and over the top violence
modifiers (every game parameter is editable)

Planned 3 Gameplay Tiers:

classic-competitive
class-based-realistic
sandbox-experimental

Upcoming (subject to change):

level editor + generator
full mod support
explosives + level destruction
more character customizations
more weapons and equipment
more levels and game modes
classes, vehicles and other experimental features

Developed by one man,
the original creator of Soldat, King Arthur's Gold and producer of Butcher

Ranked fixes

Some of the most annoying bugs in ranked play have been fixed: like spectator being stuck on dead player and side menu interfering with cursor (you can disable it entirely in settings now).

Also due to the constant great work by Norbo and jrgp the ranked matches and servers are much more stable now.
