After successfully releasing the downloadable Enemy Territory Castle Wolfenstien, Splash Damage released their second Enemy Territory game, set in the Quake Wars universe. We see the evil alien invading force; the Strogg, attempting to take over earth and enslave its population. However the GDF (Global Defence Force) stage fierce resistance and defend the earth across all its continents at all costs. Both races have access to a wide variety of technology, weaponry and vehicles, as well as upgrades and special abilities like the Strogg Spawn host, or the GDF Vampire air strike.

In the multiplayer you play as either the GDF or Strogg on a wide variety of maps that are set in various locations on earth. Each map contains a series of objectives that must be completed to win the map, these could be such things as disabling Shield generators, Destroying barricades or Repairing generators etc. The fighting takes place around these territories and ground is gained when objectives are completed. Defences can be set up in the form of turrets (only Engineers and Constructors can build these), while the Field opps and Oppressor can deploy fire support turrets such as the Hammer Launcher and Plasma Mortar.

Each side has five different classes to choose from; each has its own special abilities/weapons and useful additions to the team. The Strogg and GDF have the same class types, however each varies slightly with the weapons and deployables they can have etc.

Both the GDF and Strogg both have access to a range of Deployables for both defence and offence. Engeneers/Constructors/Covert Opps/Infiltrators/Field Opps and Oppressors can use deployables (note that one person can only have 1 deployable at any one time).
