Offworld Trading Company is a Windows real-time strategy (RTS) game developed by Mohawk Games and published by Stardock Entertainment, released in April 2016. Set on Mars, the game emphasizes economic warfare rather than traditional combat — players act as corporate titans competing to dominate the Martian market through resource management, trading, patents, sabotage, and hostile takeovers.
There’s a dynamic single-player campaign with unique CEOs and story beats, and engaging multiplayer for up to 8 players, where alliances and betrayals can shift the market in real time. The core mechanic is an always-shifting player-driven market that acts as both a tool and weapon, rewarding strategic economic play over brute force. The game also includes Steam Workshop support for mods, and various expansions add new maps, scenarios, and strategic depth.
