## What is Battlezone 98 Redux Odyssey Edition?

*** Please note that Battlezone 98 Redux requires iPad Mini Retina, iPad Air, iPad Pro or newer to run. ***

Battlezone 98 Redux delivers one of the toughest, most unforgiving retro sci-fi strategy games of all time with punishing campaigns, remastered visuals, and intense online multiplayer. This “Odyssey Edition” completes the package with the inclusion of The Red Odyssey, a formidable expansion featuring additional playable factions, campaigns, vehicles and more!
------------
Enter an alternate vision of the 1960s where the “space race” is nothing more than a cover for an interplanetary war between the US and Soviet Russia over mysterious alien bio-metal.
Take command of an army of sleek heavy assault tanks, strike cruisers, APCs and more, and wreak havoc with super-heated projectiles in your mission to blast your enemy from the face of the Moon, Mars, Venus, Titan, Io, Europa and more.
Control your array of vehicles with the retro user interface that added to the unrelenting and uncompromising nature of some of the earliest RTS classics!
Scavenge the battlefield for crucial bio-metal, deploy powerful defenses, construct advanced facilities and escalate each battle to an epic confrontation.
Revolutionary, revitalized and remastered, Battlezone 98 Redux’s blend of thrilling first person action and old-school PC strategy gameplay is as essential now as it ever was.

### 5/5 — Pls make it cross platform

*2026-01-07, version 1.01*

Love that you brought this back! No one is ever online for Multiplayer though. I know PC users have a huge advantage, but is there any chance you can make it cross-platform?

### 5/5 — Good

*2025-06-14, version 1.01*

It’s a fun challenging game I do wish that there was anyone playing the online but the single player is still great the only thing is that you have to get used to the controls

### 5/5 — WE NEED MORE

*2024-07-22, version 1.01*

PLEASE MAKE COMBAT COMMANDER ON IPAD I WILL PAY ANY PRICE

### 5/5 — Exactly like the Original

*2023-11-10, version 1.01*

After year of waiting, it’s here!!! 
So glad I can play this game again, it’s been my favorite.

### 2/5 — Great game

*2023-05-07, version 1.01*

But.... This game desperately needs some controller support or at least proper keyboard and mouse support.  Especially with my larger iPad Pro control is very awkward.  KB/Mouse support at least would make this much more playable if not full game controller support.  Not really a big ask in 2023.

### 1/5 — Crap!

*2022-11-03, version 1.01*

What a COMPLETE WASTE - The tank is completely un-driveable!
I WANT MY MONEY BACK

### 5/5 — Outstanding

*2022-04-18, version 1.01*

Just like the pc version but on my iPad !

### 5/5 — Fantastic port of a fantastic game

*2021-11-09, version 1.01*

Easy to get into, an ahead of its time.
Great fun

### 2/5 — Difficult to steer

*2020-07-10, version 1.01*

Used the old PC version which was fantastic. Very disappointed with this version simply because of the controls. How can you maintain direction accurately with a separate jump button?

### 5/5 — Needs improvement

*2020-05-20, version 1.01*

I played and still play all and every version ever made of Battlezone and BZ2 since it came out in 1998,  you absolutely have to add invert pitch ! Please!. Add inverted pitch to the control settings. Pull back  or down to pitch up , push forward or up to pitch down. Also I haven’t checked yet I hope this app version can and will support game controller, or Bluetooth keyboard and mouse ! Too many commands to execute with just touch screen. If you add better control this will be great on iPad . Nice to see if a new generation of gamers will discover this great game though app version!
