The story
You are Sam Gideon – an American soldier armed with state-of-the-art combat armor known as an Augmented Reaction Suit. Battle for the fate of your nation in a shooting action game like none ever seen! In addition to an arsenal of firearms and considerable hand-to-hand combat skills, Sam has a few tricks at his disposal thanks to the power of ARS: Tricks like AR mode, which shows him surrounding enemies in slow motion, and Boost, which lets him slide around the battlefield at breakneck speed. Mastering these abilities and more is critical to surviving the no-holds-barred action! Vanquish combines precise shooting and fast-paced combat action in dazzling new ways. From superpowered battle armor to space colonies; space battlecruisers to giant, autonomous transforming battle robots – Vanquish brings you a sci-fi future loaded with wonder, rooted in the geopolitical and technological realities of the present, to create a compelling, believable setting that will capture your heart and mind.
