Phoenix 2
Steam
Was your last game too easy? Phoenix 2 turns up the heat—it dares you to sharpen your reflexes, master its mechanics, and face down overwhelming odds. This is a game where skill matters, and only the best will survive.

Phoenix 2 is a fast-paced shoot 'em up where survival is about more than just dodging. Bullets and lasers flood the screen, but victory comes from mastering your ship’s abilities. Blast through enemy waves, unleash devastating attacks, and turn impossible odds into a spectacle of destruction. If you're overwhelmed, you're doing it wrong!

Collect your own fleet from 100 unlockable ships, each armed with a unique main weapon and its own set of special abilities! Do you prefer evasion? Choose a ship with Teleport or Barrier. Need more firepower? Get the Mega Laser or Vorpal Lance—or both! There's a ship for every playstyle. And when you have mastered one, reach perfection by getting its ultimate Apex Forms.

Battle through 30 story missions that push you to the edge. Explore the far reaches of space, face unyielding enemy waves, and take down screen-filling bosses as you fight back against the Invaders.

Beyond the campaign, new challenges drop every single day—identical for every pilot worldwide. Choose your favourite ship, show your mastery of its abilities, and rise on the leaderboards. It’s you against everyone else. In these global rankings, every fraction of a second counts.

Running on our handcrafted game engine, Phoenix 2 delivers ultra-fluid action with seamless cross-platform play. Run at the maximum FPS your system can deliver for ultra-fluid action and incredibly responsive controls. Play with mouse, keyboard, or gamepad, whichever suits you best.
The galaxy won’t save itself. Are you ready to take flight?
