The upcoming update for Pacific Strike includes the campaign setup as a "Linear Campaign". To access this you will need to be on the Public Beta branch until the Linear Campaign framework is rolled out to the Public Release/stable branch. Instructions for how to get onto the Public Beta are here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/app/1286220/discussions/0/6330466705287986768/

After you are on Public Beta, "Campaigns" becomes a new option in main menu. You can enter the Linear Campaign through this.

Linear Campaign places each mission in sequential order with interstitial events between. You have to win each mission (get result "Costly Victory" or higher) to proceed to the next mission. Completing missions will unlock the next mission or event. You can save your progress in the campaign and reload it later on similar to the future Dynamic Campaign.

If for any reason the campaign is not advancing (or if you want to just skip a mission you have already beaten from Scenarios menu), hit F10 to enable debug mode and then use the small icons on the right side to force complete each event.

Thanks for playing!
