Battleswarm: Field of Honor was a free-to-play first-person shooter/real-time strategy video game developed by Game World Tech.[4] Battleswarm featured an item mall which used Reality Gap's e-currency called 'MetaTIX'. Battleswarm was officially launched on November 19, 2009.
On July 1, 2011, Reality Gap announced they were to shut down game servers, while 'in the process of a sale to a new company who specializes in children's games'.[5] On July 16, 2011, the game servers were officially shut down.
Battleswarm takes place on a foreign planet during a catastrophic war between humans, and a race of giant bugs.
Battleswarm had a unique gameplay concept which pitted two genres of gameplay against one another. The human side was played as a first- or third-person shooter, while the bugs were commanded in the style of a real-time strategy game.
The game had both PvP and PvE gameplay, and had a large selection of game types and maps.
