Strategos: Real-Time Tactics Wargame Now in Early Access on Steam

January 20th, 2026 — Strategos, the real-time tactics wargame dedicated to large-scale warfare in classical antiquity, is out now in Early Access on Steam. Designed for players seeking historically grounded, mechanically deep battles, Strategos places command—not reflexes—at the center of warfare. From the Hoplite armies of the Persian Wars to the legions of Rome and the forces of the Hellenistic world, players take control of vast formations where morale, terrain, fatigue, and leadership determine victory or defeat. At Early Access launch, Strategos delivers a substantial and fully playable experience, offering multiple ways to engage with its tactical systems—from historical campaigns to fully customizable skirmishes. Available Now in Early Access Players can immediately access: ⚔️ Historical Campaigns Command armies across defined theaters of war, beginning with Sicily during the First Punic War, with additional campaigns planned throughout Early Access. 🗺️ Skirmish Mode with Full Battle Customization Create custom battles by selecting factions, eras, army sizes, terrain, deployment rules, AI behavior, and difficulty. 🏛️ Over 120 Playable Factions Lead forces from across the ancient Mediterranean and beyond, including Greek city-states, Hellenistic kingdoms, Rome, Carthage, Persian empires, and tribal confederations. 🪖 Over 250 Unique Units Infantry, cavalry, skirmishers, and specialist troops modeled across different cultures and historical periods. ⚙️ Deep Real-Time Tactical Warfare Formation-based combat featuring morale shocks, disorder, pursuit, routing, flanking, fog of war, terrain effects, and advanced command-and-control mechanics. A Living Battlefield Armies in Strategos do not simply fight—they react. Units break, pursue, flee, and recover based on battlefield conditions and leadership. Orders must be managed carefully through generals and command ranges, rewarding foresight and positioning over micromanagement. Early Access marks the foundation of Strategos, with additional campaigns, units, scenarios, and refinements planned as development continues.
