During mass colonisation and space exploration, three powerful lords chased their own interests. In the process of numerous disputes and division of territories, a decision was made in favor of dividing society into three separate factions, which are in conflict to this day. This is how the history of the new Universe began. WarUniverse. And only you can hold all the power! Choose one of three warring factions and take control of the universe by creating your own syndicate. Unite in groups, lead a clan and gather as many like-minded people as possible - only together can you reach the top! Defend sectors controlled by your faction from the constant threat of alien races and attacks from hostile factions. Protect the weak, strive for the strong and lead them - and this world will fall at the feet of the strongest. Get the ship you like, equip it with the latest technology. Each ship has two configurations - you can assemble each one for your tasks! For example: for waging war and for maximum speed, or you can assemble a hybrid from many different parts! You are your own master! Evolve, climbing up with each new quest or slay. Go hunting against alien creatures or go to war against enemy factions. Everything has its own price, everything has its own reward! As you gain levels, you travel further along the storyline of the Universe, discovering new wonders. What are you waiting for, Pilot? Join the action today.
