Matrix Games and Destroyer Studios are proud to announce that their space combat simulation and real time strategy blend, Starshatter: The Gathering Storm, has been updated.

The update also addressed and improved the AI related to recovery and queuing of inbound fighters.
Starshatter: The Gathering Storm challenges both the mind and the reflexes of space combat sim fans. The Starshatter series presents gamers with a unique amalgamation of heart-pounding space combat action to test the wits and reflexes without sacrificing an engaging real time strategy element that will challenge the mind.
Gamers can find themselves in a variety of roles that can start out as a grunt on the frontlines of an intergalactic war, flying a small fighter tasked with dog fighting, escorting frigates, and destroying enemy installations. Given enough time, talent, and success, the player’s good work as a grunt will land them a promotion which may eventually lead to commanding an entire fleet at the helm of a massive behemoth starship!
