Nexus is a top-down multiplayer shooter. Two teams of up to 4 players form and fight. Teams are made up of human controlled players, computer controlled players, or a combination of both.
The goal of the game is to earn more points than the other team by destroying their tanks. Players earn 20 points for a kill and 10 points for an assist. The total number of points needed to win a match varies depending on the number of players in the game.
Players control a tank that can be equipped with one of three loadouts. Each loadout comes with a gun and an ability. Loadouts come in three varieties: close-range, mid-range, or long-range. Each time a player respawns they choose a loadout and keep that loadout until they respawn again. Close range has a burst shot gun and a dash ability. Mid range has a pulse rifle gun and an EMP ability. Long range has an accelerator cannon gun and a shield ability.
