About Perimeter 2

Set in a future universe where Earth is dying, civilization is in a race against time to discover a new home planet and colonize it for suitable living conditions. In both single and multiplayer environments, you explore New Earth and battle against opposing forces, choosing either the Exodus or the Harkback, all in an attempt to acquire energy and claim the new home planet. Perimeter 2's gameplay involves strategic terraforming to acquire resources, projecting an impenetrable perimeter force shield to protect from attack, and transforming combat units through manipulative nanomorph technology.
