About Dawn of Steel-
Dawn of Steel is a modern mobile RTS game built around intuitive controls that enable a wide array of tactical options, and which reward player skill. This applies when directing squads of giant mechanized walkers, which can be controlled either individually or as a group during battle, and in creating clever base layouts to thwart enemy assaults. The intense battle for supremacy takes places on the planet Leviathan, where corporate armies fight for control of the precious resource Plasma, which is vital to the fate of planet Earth.

Dawn of Steel is developed by LA-based Superweapon, a small team of game developers whose collective experience includes work on the Command & Conquer, Company of Heroes, The Lord of the Rings, Crysis, and Empires & Allies franchises.
