'Wargroove' (ALL) Free Double Trouble DLC Planned For Next Month - Trailer

by Rainier on Jan. 8, 2020 @ 8:55 a.m. PST

Wargroove is a turn-based strategy game for up to four players, in which each player takes control of an army and its commander unit to wage war on their enemies.

Command an army, customize battlefields, and challenge your friends, in this richly detailed return to retro turn-based combat!

When war breaks out in the Kingdom of Cherrystone, the young Queen Mercia must flee her home. Pursued by her foes, the only way to save her kingdom is to travel to new lands in search of allies. But who will she meet along the way, and what sinister challenges will she face?

Take to the battlefield with Wargroove, a solo or multiplayer turn-based strategy game for up to 4 players! Choose your Commander and wage war on battling factions, using your ‘groove’ to strategically sway the fight in your favor! Design and share online your very own maps, cut-scenes, and campaign stories with easy-to-use editors and in-depth customization tools!

The Wargroove: Double Trouble DLC introduces a brand new co-op enabled campaign, new Commanders, public & private multiplayer lobbies, a whole suite of editor tool updates, balance changes + much more...

The Chucklefish development team have been hard at work over the past year to bring the strategy games community a chunky, new DLC campaign, adding lots of features to discover, as a big thank you for the wonderful support for Wargroove’s initial launch. We hope you’ll enjoy getting to know the new cast of Commanders and further exploring the world of Wargroove!

Grab a fellow ruffian, set up your Hideout and take on Wargroove: Double Trouble. Designed with co-op play in mind, this expansion adds a new story campaign that introduces Outlaw Commanders; the mighty Wulfar, troublemaker twins Errol and Orla, as well as the maleficent Vesper.

After an unexpected kidnapping and some severe ransom demands, your group of rogues have no choice but to perform the biggest heist that Aurania has ever seen - plundering riches from the Imperial Palace of Heavensong, Stone Mountain Fort of Felheim, the Celandine Vault of Cherrystone and the Floran’s Iron Roots reserves. But do you have the chops to get the job done?

It won’t be easy, but at least you’ll have two new units at your command - Thieves and Riflemen! Take tactical advantage of these new recruits, sending forth your Thief to ransack enemy gold and carefully position your Rifleman to take out enemy troops.

Introduces:

  • Brand new Co-Op Story Campaign (can be played couch co-op, online co-op or even solo)
  • 3 New Roguish Commanders
  • 2 New Units - Thieves & Riflemen!
  • New Arcade missions
  • Competitive online Quick Play
  • Public and Private Multiplayer Lobbies
  • New Volcano map theme and more updates to the custom Editor tools
  • Outlaw music tracks, composed by Phonetic Hero
  • And much more!

Wargroove: Double Trouble is coming to PC, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox One on February 6th 2020. The DLC will be dropping on PS4 sooner after, date to be revealed.
