After successfully funding on Kickstarter, turn-based tactical strategy game Warside has finally locked in a release date. It will launch for Switch and many other platforms January 28, 2025.
In case you missed our existing coverage of this, as you can see, it’s heavily inspired by a certain Nintendo series. The developer has previously mentioned that he feels he can “evolve” the genre and has been happy to cite not only Advance Wars but series like Wargroove and Into The Breach as inspirations.
“Our team grew up playing the genre-defining masterpieces from the Advance Wars series. We’ve continued to enjoy modern turn-based tactical games like Into The Breach and Wargroove, but we feel we can evolve the space further.
“If a modern tactical turn-based game were released today, what would it look like? How would it play? Warside aims to update the formula while retaining the charm, style and feel of the genre’s classics.”
When this one launches on Switch, you can expect it to include a solo story campaign, multiplayer support, and a built-in map editor. You’ll also be able to choose between commanders as you “fight your way to victory.”
