Action-packed single-player campaign
You are Son of a Gun - an interplanetary mercenary working for the Sons of a Gun organization. You’re called always when firepower matters and something needs to be solved by force. While being on a vacation on a tropical planet you’re just received a phone call from the SOAG Command Center…

You'll have plenty of guns in 7 different classes at your disposal. Grab pistols, shotguns, SMG's, rifles, plasma guns, sniper rifles, or rocket launchers - you're defining your own playstyle. Don't forget about grenades - gear up with your favorite grenade type - cluster, force, explosive, implosive…

Exotic planets
You'll fight in the heart of the distant planets with versatile biomes. Each with their own unique environment and challenges - reach a target area, unlock base gates, download data from data-pylons or survive the horde's attack.
