Introducing... Frozen Synapse Arenas – Vote Now!

[Sir Moongoose]

Frozen Synapse Prime on Steam will feature brand new exclusive content, in form of Frozen Synapse Prime Arenas!

FIVE unique match types with their own battlegrounds designed specifically for Arena mode will be added to the game and you have the chance to vote on which ones make the final game!

Maps, squads and unit placements are not random in the new Arena matches, but created and balanced specifically for some awesome new multiplayer showdowns.

The Arena maps were conceived by our most devious designers, to challenge players to strategize a little differently, combine the strengths of your squad in new ways, and utilize the terrain like never before.

Which way will you turn in the tightly confined corridors of Claustrophobia? How can you make use of the Rocket Launcher in Necropolis to turn the tides of battle? Where will you position your Snipers in Crossfire? Which team will come out on top in the lawless town of the Dustbowl?

All Arena matches can also be played in Dark mode and against the AI in Skirmish mode.



For the first time, you the fans have the opportunity to help determine some exclusive content for Frozen Synapse!

We’ve picked a few of our favourite Arenas to be included in the game, now it’s your turn to pick the final 2!

Which Arena maps would you like to see go into the game? We’ve shortlisted 5 for you to vote on; Claustrophobia, Crossfire, Dustbowl, Maelstrom and Necropolis. Take a look at each Arena map, the squad positions and choose your favourites.

The two that get the highest number of votes will be selected as Frozen Synapse Prime Arenas and will be available when the game launches!

The Voting Rules…

Done! I voted for Dustbowl since it looks like it'd get quite tense! Are there going to be more maps in the future?

[Drogun]

I voted for Maelstrom, it looks like a lot of fun to play around with. Can't wait for the Steam version, I had quite a lot of fun with the Vita version.

[Nome]

I voted for MAELSTORM seems like a good map for a quick tactical game. Otherwise my runner up is DUSTBOWL.

[MetalTuna]

I like the look of Maelstrom and Dustbowl, I'm all for mixed units.

[MMNXXXXFFDMA]

I hate explosive units and prefer only machinegun units... I voted for the first map since it also offers a quick game.

[Sir Moongoose]

The poll is now closed! Thanks to everyone who took part!

The winning Arenas are Dustbowl and Maelstrom, these two Arenas will join Chasm, Jailbreak and Stronghold when the game launches on November 14th.

We'll share more details on each Arena in the run up to launch.

[Liquid_Vegeta]

Awesome! Are there any more maps planned for the future?

[Sir Moongoose]

If the Arenas are popular amongst fans we will of course do our best to provide more of them.

Our Designers have tons of ideas for devious new Arenas they want to try out!
