Man, I remember when Wasteland 2 hit Kickstarter, I was so excited. Not because I had a nostalgic familiarity with the series, but because I am just so in love with traditional RPGs in that vein. I wanted to support that style of game ...

I can't say I've ever seen a tactical role-playing game that looks like Othercide. It's committing hard to its black, white, and red aesthetic, and the subject matter – a war between Daughters, the "echoes of the greatest warrior to e...

Mutant Year Zero: Road to Eden captured hearts and minds in 2018 with the way it blended smart tactical shooting, real-time stealth/ambush mechanics, and a cast of gruff wise-cracking animals. It was XCOM by way of Animal Farm, m...

When I woke up this morning, I didn't expect to spend a chunk of my afternoon watching AI-driven teams duke it out in Final Fantasy Tactics while hundreds of Twitch viewers placed bets on the outcome. What have I gotten myself into? And how...

Great news for fans of tactical adventure title Wargroove, as developer/publisher Chucklefish has announced a new expansion is headed to the game in February. What's more, this new DLC will be coming free-of-charge to all players! Neato.The...

You know a game is good when the mere mention of its name compels you to boot it up for "just a quick round." That's how I feel about Into the Breach, the turn-based tactical mech title from FTL creator Subset Games. It's free right now on ...

BattleTech was originally released as a reboot of sorts to the classic tabletop game, which in turn inspired the MechCommander and MechAssault video games. The digital adaptation has been met with both critical and fan appeal and now,...

Grab your sword and hit the road in today's contest for a physical PS4 copy of The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel III! Do they still have war schools/academies somewhere? I don't think we really have any like the ones video gam...

Here's the problem with time: there's never enough of it! We only have so many hours in the day, and no matter how motivated you felt last night right before falling asleep, when you wake up the next morning and start chipping away at your ...

Enter today's contest to win a custom Switch console from Tiny Metal: Full Metal Rumble! Do you like turn-based strategy games? How's about free consoles? Endless strings of asinine rhetorical questions? Well, I've got two of those three th...

Netflix's Punisher series may be over, but at least its leading man has gotten good work. During Ubisoft's E3 press conference, a new story trailer showed off Jon Bernthal as Cole D. Walker giving a pep talk to his troops and it was ...

A bit of a "good news and bad news" situation with Mutant Year Zero: Road to Eden. First, the bad. The Switch port has been delayed. Originally announced for a June 25 launch, it's now slated to release on July 30. But, a spoonful of sugar...

The cat's out of the bag now. Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Breakpoint will be the next entry in the squad-based tactical shooter. Accidentally leaked yesterday, pretty much all of the information we reported on is true. This latest sequel take...

One of my first stops at PAX East 2019 was checking out Pixelated Milk's tactical WWII game, Warsaw, due out on PC, PlayStation 4, and Switch later this year. Set in Nazi-occupied Warsaw, you play out the days of the Warsaw uprisi...

Larian Studios' next project isn't the obvious one. Rather than continuing the Divinity series with Original Sin 3, Larian is side-stepping to craft an experience that's sort of different from what people are used to. This morning, La...

Stop me if you've heard this one before: A pig and a duck walk into a post-apocalyptic wasteland... Oh, you have heard this one? That's right, Mutant Year Zero: Road to Eden launched late last year. Quietly, it was a hidden gem. Maybe...

After successfully playing around with industrial espionage in Gunpoint and spaceship heists in Heat Signature, designer Tom Francis is moving onto [checks notes...] wizards? Yeah, wizards. It makes a weird sort of sense. His next project, ...

Developer Void Entertainment has unveiled the first gameplay video of its tactical shooter Ready or Not. Announced nearly two years ago, this game is a return to the style of gameplay found in the popular SWAT series of games that last saw ...

Whenever a Ubisoft title launches, it's become a tradition to need a chart to figure out which version includes what content. Rainbow Six Siege launched with only two editions but has now ballooned out into multiple versions with different ...

While I haven't jumped on Wargroove yet, I'm super thankful Chucklefish has given Advance Wars fans something fresh to chew on. Don't get me wrong, I'll never grow bored of revisiting Intelligent Systems' uncomplicated turn-based GBA titles...

The Division that launched in March 2016 is a far cry from the Division that exists today. Developer Massive Entertainment created a technically-adept squad-based cover shooter that never addressed the most major component of a li...

Last year I was given the opportunity to see a behind-closed-doors demo of Eugen Systems' World War II tactical strategy game Steel Division II. What I saw there left me wanting and waiting for more. At the time, the only thing close to a ...

[In case you missed it the first time around, the beta has been extended through January 31! Get your keys here and try it out.] We're doing a mass giveaway of beta keys for new turn-based action strategy game, BATALJ. Looking to try y...

Into the Breach leaves nothing to chance, nothing to luck. It tells you exactly what it's going to do, all the while daring you to stop it. And most of the time you can't. How frustrating yet fair. Into the Breach is Subset Games'...
