Play Target Earth Online

Summary

Target Earth drops you into a bleak future where Earth is besieged by relentless robot forces. You pilot a versatile mech that can stride across planetary surfaces or soar through the void of space.

The game alternates between two distinct level styles: on‑foot side‑scrolling stages where you run, jump, and blast enemies across moons and planets, and zero‑gravity space arenas that let you drift in any direction. This shift keeps the action fresh, demanding both platforming reflexes and free‑form maneuvering.

A wide arsenal—machine guns, lasers, grenades and more—lets you customize your loadout to match each encounter, turning every run into a tactical puzzle.

Storyline

It is the year 2201 and humanity’s expanding technologies now let people live anywhere in space. The conflict at the heart of Target Earth erupts between Earth (and its colonies) and a mysterious cyborg army called Chron, whose purpose is unknown at first. Chron are later revealed to be the survivors of a failed Outer Space Expeditionary Party sent by Earth a hundred years earlier. The Earth Defense League throws its weight behind the Assault Suit – a twelve‑foot‑tall armored battle machine – and you take the role of Rex, an Assault Suit Wing commander and combat specialist. The fight kicks off on Ganymede, then spreads to battles in orbit, on Earth’s surface, and inside enemy outposts.
