Singleplayer Update: Smarter AI, Custom Games & UX Improvements

Enhanced Singleplayer Experience

This update puts a major focus on the singleplayer experience. VS AI has been significantly expanded with smarter real-time behavior, multiple difficulty levels and varied strategic profiles. This makes matches more dynamic and gives you more opportunities to read and react to your opponent's strategy.

Expanded VS AI

• Three difficulty levels: Easy, Normal, and Hard • AI matches use three different strategic profiles: Rush, Balanced, and Tech Synergy

Optimized Real-Time AI Behavior

The AI now actively develops its strategy throughout the match:

• Builds its economy • Produces and expands its army • Researches technologies • Uses Tactical Charges • Launches attacks • Uses abilities during combat • Its actions and current strategy can be scouted in real time

Custom Games

• Added Custom Games, allowing you to set up your own matches and play with friends.

UX Improvements

• Fixed an issue where cursors were not displayed correctly on Linux. • An official Steam Deck controller profile is now available. • Updated faction-specific UI elements to strengthen each faction's visual identity.

Abilities

• The activation threshold of Executio was changed from ≤ 50% → < 50%, so its actual behavior now matches its description.
