Forged Battalion Releases
August 14, in the year of our Lord 2018 –
Team17 in partnership with Command and Conquer veterans,
Petroglyph, announced that Forged Battalion comes out of early
access today. Forged Battalion is available on Steam priced at
£15.49/$19.99/€19.99 and will have a 20% discount for the week
of launch.
Forged Battalion is a dynamic and innovative take on the
real-time strategy genre that allows players to build and
customise their own unique faction. Players can create,
customise and develop their units as they fight in a variety of
skirmish, solo and multiplayer battles. Using resources gained
form each battle, players can unlock new options through the
tech tree, allowing them to create an ever-changing faction.
All unit types can be modified to adjust their armour, weapons
and even apply special abilities such as stealth and
regeneration. This customisation allows players to adapt to
enemy tactics and change their faction to be best prepared for
the fight. For instance, if the enemy is using fire troops, you
can apply fire resistant armour to your units. With each tier of
the tech tree that you unlock, you will gain blueprints to a
wider variety of customisation options that can be changed
between matches to fit the enemy archetypes that you’re facing.

• 15 single player campaign missions
