Xenopurge is a tactical auto-battler where you command an elite squad remotely, deep in the warzones of Xenowarfare. As part of M.A.C.E. ( Mercer’s Advanced Combat Enterprises ), your mission is clear: purge all these aliens to keep humanity safe. From several computer screens, you'll see the layout of the facilities your units traverse, directing them to search, recover and destroy. The Xeno menace is relentless. To survive, you’ll need sharp tactics, upgraded gear, and a willingness to sacrifice. You’re not in the field—but their lives are in your hands. You give the orders, they fight for their lives Instead of a classic top-down view of the battlefield, you operate from a remote command center surrounded by screens and data feeds. You can give orders to your troops from a list of instructions but will have a limited range of direct actions to impact the battlefield. Xenopurge is more about anticipation and planning, than reaction and control. Recruit and equip your squad As the mission unfolds, you'll have the chance to bring in new squad members with their own starting tactical methods. Gear them up to fit your command style — shaping a team built for your tactical needs. Experience a tense tactical auto-battler You're leading your troops to hunt and exterminate alien threats in the depths of space. Ominous, dark spaceships inspired by the likes of Alien & Space Hulk combined with a retro-futuristic aesthetics, creating a creeping horror atmosphere where every decision feels critical. It’s not just about tactics — it’s about surviving the unknown. Keep improving Every decision matters with the tension of death looming over your shoulders, countered with the satisfaction of roguelite continuous progression, you'll shape your strategies to overcome the evolving threats. Expand your command abilities and unlock new recruit options after every run. Success or failure, you will become a better leader.  Quick Diverse Engaging Sessions – Playable in Short Bursts Designed for fast, intense tactical runs, Xenopurge lets players complete a run in around 60 minutes—This makes it easy to pick up and play, whether you have time for a single mission or an extended session. Procedurally generated maps ensure no two missions are the same, with variable layouts, enemies, keeping each run unpredictable. Combined with diverse objectives like search, escort, extraction, and destruction, every mission becomes a fresh tactical challenge. 

Press reviews: “Without a license, without any flash, with only basic but surprisingly effective art, Traptics' Xenopurge cuts to the heart of Aliens. It's tense, claustrophobic and everyone is probably going to die. It's great!” PC Gamer “Xenopurge is an auto-battler that is well worth picking up and playing. It captures the tense feeling of trying to keep a squad alive as they carry out their mission, while the odds get increasingly worse the longer they are exposed. If you love the vibe of the Alien franchise, and want to try and command squads on runs to fight back against an alien threat, then Xenopurge should be on your list.” Sixth Axis “Xenopurge is one of, if not the most, unique games I’ve played this year. A game where “immersion” is the operating word” Try Hard Guides
