Bringing Advance Wars-inspired tactical gameplay to mobile devices

Features grid-based combat, map creation tools, and local hot-seat multiplayer

Few strategy franchises have achieved the cult status of Advance Wars, with its deep yet accessible tactical gameplay. Chucklefish successfully captured this magic with Wargroove, and now Wargroove 2: Pocket Edition prepares to deliver that signature strategic experience directly to your mobile device on July 30th.

The game challenges players with turn-based warfare across grid maps where tactical positioning decides victory. Wargroove 2 builds upon its predecessor with an expansive 20-hour campaign featuring three interconnected storylines.

Beyond the campaign, Wargroove 2 boasts robust creation tools including a built-in map editor for designing and sharing custom battlefields. The hot-seat multiplayer mode lets players alternate turns by passing their device—perfect for local competitive matches.

The sequel enhances the formula with online multiplayer featuring cross-play compatibility across platforms. Players can lead one of 20+ unique commanders from six distinct factions, each possessing special "Groove" abilities that can dramatically shift battle momentum.

Additional features include extensive customization options and an all-new roguelike campaign mode that pushes tactical skills to their limits.
