What we love

1. Each week in June over four consecutive weeks a new pair of maps will be released providing new environments and strategic experiences and requiring new ways of thinking to beat back the aliens and protect your cores.

2. Defense Grid: Resurgence is the first premium expansion for Defense Grid: The Awakening and is made up of 8 new highly polished and balanced maps from the original creators.

3. Defense Grid: The Awakening is a unique spin on tower defense gameplay that will appeal to players of all skill levels.

4. The controls are intuitive and the gameplay is deep — the special attacks and properties of each tower work together to provide many ways to succeed.

5. Each map pack contains 2 maps each with a campaign mode and 4 additional modes associated with the design of that level.

6. Beautiful environments, spectacular effects, and a dynamic, engaging soundtrack bring the world to life.

7. A horde of enemies is invading, and it's up to the player to stop them by strategically building fortification towers around their base.

8. New Steam achievements and high-score leaderboards are associated with each map pack.
