Fighting off the military as well as monsters and kaiju, Dreadnought Tartarus promises a lack of level-based missions: instead, the game will take place in one continuous trip, as you pilot your battlecruiser over the city. 

During this run, players will be able to decide what routes to take, promising a risk-reward situation as well as the ability to upgrade your ship on the fly. 

Similarly, your ship can also be decked out with different weapons, ranging from cannons, missiles to even super weapons. 

As befitting of an invasion ship, you can even launch smaller ships from your Dreadnought, sowing as much chaos as you'd like as you continue your campaign.
