Developers Slipgate Ironworks, 2B Games, and publisher Fulqrum Publishing have announced that their upcoming real-time strategy game Warpaws is to launch on consoles and PC in Q1 2023.
The tactical game where dogs and cat duke it out in a lighthearted alternate world using WWII-inspired armaments will be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch and PC.
Watch the trailer below:
In Warpaws, you will get to unleash strategic carnage with 16 different units in five battle-torn biomes. Deploy spies for stealthy showdowns, send bazooka-wielding soldiers to dominate skirmishes on sand dunes, or assemble a mix of gunners, engineers, and fiery pyros suited for any engagement. Each unit stands on its own; instead of replacing them with direct upgrades, all characters have their own specialties.
You can battle through the single-player campaign or try competing against other players in a variety of multiplayer modes. In co-op mode, you can call upon a trusted ally and take down AI forces in a co-op mode, duke it out in online versus mode matches, or become the King of the Hill champion.
