These are the most anticipated Strategy Games of 2018. With the arrival of the new year, it is the best time to look for the new and best strategy games so that could add to our celebrations for the new year.
Well there are some best strategy games that would really add to your joy this year. Though there is a possibility I am missing one game or another, but what i have in knowledge store for you is getting started with Riot.
RIOT –Civil Unrest
Now you are able to play RIOT that saw a release into Early Access earlier this year meeting with positive feedback, though it is suffering from some issues. RIOT -prior to its eventual launch out of early access- needs to improve on the feedback it gives its players within the game & smooth out bugs.
Total War Saga: Thrones of Britannia
2018 won’t see the release of Total War: Warhammer III, that will allay concerns for those who are worried about games of such scale being launched each year. But, don’t go sad, we’ll not be missing out on Total War. Staples of the series, from huge real time battles and grand strategic goals on the main map are expected.
Look at releases such as Alexander, Napoleon and Attila for a similar approach. Thrones of Britannia takes on a much focused -on the British Isles in 878AD- approach. You’ll encounter Anglo-Saxons, Vikings and, local Gaelic clans. The map featured in this game is 23 times bigger than the largest interpretation in prior Total War games.
