149 bots. One arena. One storm closing in. Only one square walks out. Battle Squares throws you into a solo battle royale where every fight is yours to win or lose. Loot supply drops, chase down power-ups, and out-gun everyone standing between you and the win. 12 CLASSES, 12 WAYS TO FIGHT Every class is a real tradeoff, not a reskin. Go glass-cannon with the Ghost or Viper. Go immovable with the Sentinel or Warlord. Stack damage as your HP drops with the Berserker. Turn into a walking gun with the Engineer's Siege Mode. Master your class's signature ability and unleash it when the fight gets close. LOOT THAT MATTERS Supply drops parachute into the arena throughout the match — grab a standard crate, gamble on a Risk Cache for a bigger payout, or race for a Signature Drop that hands you your class's ultimate ability on the spot. CHAOS ON A TIMER The storm never stops shrinking. Hot Zones, Kill Frenzy windows that triple your coin payout, and random map events keep every match unpredictable — no two runs play the same. SANDBOX MODE Set your own rules. Configure the match however you want and test your build without the pressure of a real drop. PROGRESSION THAT SHOWS Track every kill and every win on your Stats screen. Unlock badges for the moments worth bragging about. Build a win streak and earn access to elite classes you can't get any other way. Drop in. Loot fast. Shoot faster.
