MicroProse Takes to the Skies with Drone Sector

MicroProse is proud to announce its partnership with the developers of Drone Sector, a thrilling new tactical gunship command game set in a futuristic combat theater. Fusing the raw power of close air support with real-time squad command and resource management, Drone Sector puts players in full control of the battlefield from above. A demo is available to play now on Steam.

About the Game
Drone Sector is a unique hybrid of action and strategy where players take on the role of a futuristic drone gunship pilot, offering overwatch and firepower to advancing squads. Inspired by real-world platforms like the AC-130 and MQ-9 Reaper, the game blends air dominance with ground tactics in handcrafted missions filled with high-stakes objectives.
From above, players guide ground troops through dangerous terrain, using precision firepower to clear paths, neutralize threats, and ensure successful extractions. Every decision matters—send your squads to gather resources and research materials, or extract early to avoid being overrun.
Between missions, manage and upgrade your arsenal: research new tech, enhance your gunship, and customize your squads for the next operation.
