Corruption 2029 is a turn-based tactics video game developed and published by The Bearded Ladies. It was released in February 2020 for Windows PCs. Players control a trio of cyborgs who must defeat enemy troops that outnumber them using stealth and trickery.

Gameplay

Two factions vie for control of the United States using remote-controlled cyborgs in a dystopian future. Players control a squad of three cyborgs who must defeat enemy troops. Surveilling enemy territory is done in real-time, similar to stealth games. When engaging enemies, the game shifts to turn-based combat. Once the squad is detected, enemies alert their allies, though they can be stunned to delay this. To reduce the numbers of enemies that must be fought after being discovered, players can snipe at lone targets and lure enemies into traps. After completing missions, the player's soldiers can be upgraded via a branching skill tree.^[2]

Development

Corruption 2029 was released for Windows PCs on February 17, 2020.^[1]
