Cat and dog fans can soon battle it out for supremacy as a new light hearted RTS is heading to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC in Q1 2023. Warpaws features 16 different units in five battle-torn biomes including spies, flamethrowers, gunners and engineers.
“Command canine corps or feline forces and utilize superior planning and strategic abilities to capture key control points from enemy units to dominate the map.”
The game includes a single player mode, online battles and a co-op mode which also includes AI forces. Four maps are available, Desert, Polar, Lava, City, and Islands, and these feature their own dangers including snowstorms and giant sharks that will eat your troops if they get close to the water.
“As big fans of the Bitmap Brothers’ Z, we always loved the idea of making our own strategy game that focused more on engagement than resources,” said Daniel Mortensen, Game Director, Slipgate Ironworks. “Warpaws is our chance to make good on that dream, and we hope you enjoy playing it as much as we enjoyed creating it.”
The game is being created by Slipgate Ironworks, a game development studio located in Aalborg, Denmark, comprised of industry veterans and talent, having worked on both indie and AAA titles for the past 2 decades. There past work includes Rise of the Triad, under the Interceptor Entertainment name, and the developers have also worked on Ghostrunner, GRAVEN, Rad Rodgers, and most recently, Tempest Rising.
