Galactic Thunderdome takes place in a far-future dystopian gladiation gameshow that is broadcast all around the galaxy. The contestants of the show are criminals from all corners and epochs of the cosmos who are forced to live out countless life sentences by being repeatedly mind-transferred into clones of ten gladiator bodies to duke it out for the entertainment of the galaxy.

Galactic Thunderdome has:

  • Various game modes like 1v1, Free-for-All, Team Deathmatch, Capture the Flag, Escape with the Treasure, King of the Hill, Thunderball (soccer with a twist), Survival, and more...

  • 10 characters, each with a unique special ability

  • Over 70 unique weapons. Galactic Thunderdome features a two-hand weapon wielding system, allowing you to use any ranged weapon in one hand and any melee weapon in the other hand simultaneously, for over 800 weapon combinations.
