What is Squad?

A tactical first-person military shooter centered on large online matches between two teams. Players join squads, fight as infantry, operate vehicles, build defenses, and transport ammunition and materials across large maps. A separate cooperative mode supports shorter PvE missions for small teams.

What players say

81% of 243,601 reviews are positive · 78% of 1,193 in the last 30 days

Players praise its balance between fast military action and slower simulation, particularly when squads communicate and leaders coordinate the team. The most common complaint is that the UE5 update sharply reduced performance; players also report persistent bugs and inconsistent teamwork on public servers.
