A beloved board game is about to get apocalyptic on consoles with Risk Urban Assault, which brings the classic strategy formula into a dark future of anarchy and societal collapse.

The RISK: Urban Assault console game is an exciting new version of the RISK brand set across five iconic cities from around the globe, such as New York, London and Paris. At its heart, it retains the DNA that makes the RISK game so popular with an additional layer of strategy introduced by commanders, facilities and alliances.

Each faction brings something different to the fight, whether it’s a full army, new technology, or a criminal organization. Factions also feature unlockable commanders with unique abilities, like bombardments and troop reinforcements, which can quickly turn the tide of a battle.

Risk Urban Assault features plenty of strategic features that go beyond skirmishes for territory, as you’ll be able to build military bases and broadcast towers to bolster your control, take charge of city councils, put bounties on opponents, and offer incentives to other players so that they’ll form temporary alliances with you.

Players will wage war in the campaign mode, where they will need to choose among five different factions, each with their own strengths and weaknesses. Players will also choose commanders to employ with unique abilities and new strategies to use such as diplomacy or using city funds. Players will enjoy a brand-new RISK gaming experience in the new online modes such as League Play, where they will play six games in a league and earn points, medals and gain promotion for winning. Both campaign mode and online modes are playable with up to five players, offline or online.

The RISK: Urban Assault console game is available on Sony PlayStation Store for PS4 and PS3, and on Microsoft Xbox Store for Xbox One and Xbox 360.
