Ketchup Strike
A 5v5 first-person hero shooter where nobody bleeds: everything splatters ketchup. Lanes, towers, creeps and the enemy fridge you have to smash. Free to play.
The Steam page opens after Valve's review. Until then you can request an Early Access key from support.
Siege: smash the enemy fridge
Two teams of five heroes, three lanes with three towers each and a fridge deep in every base. Jungle camps sit between the lanes, creep waves march every half a minute. A match takes 15–25 minutes: team levels, talents, ultimates and one decisive map event.
- 1Lanes and towers.Towers hit hard. The fridge opens after the first tower falls, but while the others stand it takes half damage.
- 2Creeps and jungle.Sauce soldiers and pepper mills march in waves and break towers for you; a cleared jungle camp gives experience and sends a mercenary down a lane.
- 3Map events and Tabasco.Every map has its own event: millstones, the pepper punisher, teapots, a cannery robot. From minute 9 Colonel Tabasco steps out: beat him and he marches on the enemy base.
- 4Levels, talents, the Thaw.Your team grows to level 20 and every hero picks one of two talents on six tiers. From minute 18 both fridges thaw, so every match ends.
Where to fight
Every map is its own biome with its own event and cover along the lanes. The minimaps are captured from the maps themselves.
Who fights for the sauce
Each has their own weapon with no magazine, two abilities, an ultimate, six talent tiers, a voice and a graffiti tag.

Everything you do in Siege is kept on the server: hero mastery from every match, your account level, tokens for matches and daily quests, and a rating for ranked matches.
Daily quests and tokens
Three quests a day: wins, damage, healing, matches with the hero of the day. Tokens come from matches and quests; the shop arrives in a later version.
Rating and mastery
Calibration, rank and a rating graph, your last ten matches, hero cards with win rate, mastery and favourite talents.
Tutorial and training range
A range with dummies and short cooldowns to try any hero. The tutorial walks you through seven steps in the game itself.
Keyboard, gamepad, Steam Deck
Every match action is on the gamepad and the HUD prompts switch by themselves. Lost the connection? Rejoin the same match within three minutes with the same hero, talents and score.

What is new in 1.8.2 (patch notes in Russian)
Ketchup Strike 1.8.2
Полковник Табаско
- Его снова можно убить: раньше, если он никого не видел (стреляют из-за стеллажей, с уступа), он лечился быстрее, чем его били. Теперь восстанавливается только если его не трогают 5 секунд, и медленно, а того, кто по нему стреляет, достаёт и из-за укрытия.
- Не появляется на месте события карты (например, в кладовой с вареньем) — выходит на верхней или нижней линии.
Лагеря и наёмники
- Когда ваша команда зачищает лагерь, вверху экрана пишется: «лагерь зачищен — +200 опыта, наёмник идёт на … линию». Это видит только ваша команда.
Руководство
- Новая вкладка «Правила Осады»: за что дают опыт и сколько, что такое «+25% опыта» у отстающей команды, холодильник и башни, ворота и щит, крипы, лагеря и наёмники, Табаско, событие карты, Оттепель, возрождение и сдача.
- Руководство открывается прямо в матче — кнопка «Руководство» в паузе (в «Осаде» сразу на правилах).
