Warborn

PQube Limited have announced the release date for Raredrop Games’ upcoming mecha strategy game, Warborn.

Inspired by anime from the ’90s, Warborn is a turn-based strategy game where players command squads of mechas called Variable Armours. Choose from one of four commanders with unique traits and abilities, call in reinforcements from orbit, and take a more direct approach from the cockpit of your commander’s advanced prototype VA.


You can find the new gameplay trailer below.

You can find a rundown of the game (via Steam) below:


Rise up and deploy for battle in the Variable Armour, a technologically advanced suit of war. As the political climate between factions is thrown out of balance and the solar system is engulfed in conflict, lead your strike force of deadly mecha towards victory in turn-based tactical combat.

COMMAND
Choose from four commanders, each representing a different faction and bringing with them their own unique power, traits and play style. Think tactically as you move your units, clash with rival mecha, and watch the outcome in dramatic battle sequences inspired by 90s Japanese animation.

DEPLOY
Call in reinforcements from orbit by picking from a range of mass-produced units with differing combat roles. Assemble a force to lead into battle and strike fear into the enemy with imposing second-generation Variable Armours, piloted exclusively by your commander.

ADVANCE
Push forward and secure your supremacy on a battlefield of hexagonal area tiles. Use a variety of terrain types to take cover or undermine the enemy, and capture structures to gain additional resources or deployment sites.

BATTLE
Inflict status effects, plant traps, support allies. Each type of Variable Armour is armed with its own specialist equipment and unique skills, allowing you to engage the enemy with a variety of tactical options.

GAME MODES

CAMPAIGN
WARBORN takes place in the Auros System, during a time of war and political uncertainty. While inter-faction disputes erupt, see the war unfold from the eyes of four different commanders across a story-driven campaign featuring over 40 missions.

SKIRMISH & MULTIPLAYER
Configure your own match parameters and develop new tactics by competing against AI in Skirmish mode, or take the battle online to outwit rival commanders across the world in tense one-on-one matches.

MAP EDITOR
Feeling creative? Make your own custom maps using the built-in Map Editor. Take your custom maps into Skirmish mode to try against the computer, or play them online with friends.


Warborn launches June 12th on Windows PC, Mac (both via Steam), Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
