What is Formicide?

Formicide is an online platform shooter where teams of ants capture control-point beacons in short matches. You jump between platforms and fire weapons across seven maps, from deserts to coral reefs. Eight classes include a cloaking hunter and a turret-building engineer, with a choice of ultimate abilities for each.
