In collaboration with the wonderful guys at Robotality and Super Rare Games, weve produced a COMPLETE COLLECTION of these two critically acclaimed turn-based tactics classics for you to treasure.
In 2016, we set out to create a turn-based tactics game, driven by nostalgia for an era of handheld strategy games. Wargroove came to be, through a desire to capture the retro-feel of these titles, and a passionate community of tactics fans who cheered us on along the way. In 2020, we partnered with our great friends and strategy game developers at Robotality, with a vision of creating Wargroove 2. We expanded the world of Aurania, introducing new factions, stories and game modes. The Wargroove series is one brimming with challenging, strategic gameplay that we couldnt help but keep growing. It is our pleasure to bring you the full series: Wargroove, its DLC Double Trouble and its sequel Wargroove 2 all in a single cartridge, to play on handhelds, just as we loved to do on our Game Boy Advances.

Hey Strategy fans!

Wargroove 2 is now available in Japanese

Wargroove 1 + 2 physical edition is coming to Japan!

Hey everyone! Were stopping by to wish a very happy 5th anniversary to Wargroove! It's been an exciting year, with the reveal of the sequel, Wargroove 2, weve continued to expand the world of Aurania and build our community into a hub of enthusiastic tactics fans! To celebrate this special day, both Wargroove and Wargroove 2 will be on sale from February 1st to February 8th.
Wargroove came to life as a love letter to the classic turn-based tactical games we adored and wanted to see on modern platforms. Fueled by nostalgia and an excitement to build something new after Starbound, in 2017 we got to work building a new strategy title with a retro feel. As Aurania and the factions of Cherrystone, Felheim, Floran and Heavensong came to life throughout development, we developed new twists to keep the genre fresh. With a unique Groove system, dynamic gameplay and a custom campaign and map editor, Wargroove became a full-featured title. Wargroove not only became a labour of love by the development team, but also became a bustling community of passionate tactics fans who love creating fan art, custom campaigns, mods and our very own thriving competitive community, Groove of War. You can join our community Discord to see what all the buzz is about After launching Wargroove in 2019, we followed up on Wargrooves success with an all-new co-operative DLC, Double Trouble - a free update which brought a new story and a brand-new Outlaw faction into the mix. In 2020, the baton passed to our friends at Robotality, who took over with their own turn-based strategy experience and expanded Wargroove even further with Wargroove 2, introducing a plethora of new units, 2 new factions and 3 story-rich campaigns. The anniversary sale is our little way of showing gratitude for your unwavering support. The Wargroove community wouldnt be the same without your enthusiastic engagement and feedback. Thank you all for all the support youve shown Wargroove over the last 5 years. We hope youve enjoyed the additions made to Wargroove 2. Heres to many more years of tactical gameplay goodness!

Hey everyone, As of today, Wargroove now features cross-play support between ALL platforms, including PS4, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One and PC. Wahoo! We're really happy to finally be able to complete our vision of one big, happy Wargroove community, as PS4 players now join the mix. This means that no matter what platform of Wargroove you choose to battle on, you can enjoy competitive and cooperative multiplayer games, as well as share and play community-made maps online with friends. From the very early stages of development, we knew that playing Wargroove multiplayer was not only incredibly fun, but also a huge part of the game's experience, which made supporting crossplay between all platforms a no-brainer for us. As you may already know, the release of our free DLC, Wargroove: Double Trouble, on Steam earlier this year also featured a new public and private lobby system, making it quicker and easier to get stuck into an online match, no matter your platform of choice! With today's much-awaited PS4 launch of Wargroove: Double Trouble, AND the addition of full crossplay support, we hope you'll have fun teaming up with some new players to take on our Outlaw-themed Co-Op campaign. Have fun out there!

We're excited to be teaming up with the team at Japan-based studio, Area 35, on a brand new free DLC campaign for strategy title TINY METAL: FULL METAL RUMBLE, featuring Wargroove's majestic armoured dog Commander, Caesar!
As big fans of turn-based tactics and the awesome games that Area 35 make, adding Caesar to the TINY METAL ranks feels like a match made in Heavensong. You wont be waiting long either - TINY METAL: FULL METAL RUMBLE - Caesar's Rescue DLC is available for *FREE* on Nintendo Switch and PC tomorrow (Thursday March 12th, 2020)! Featuring:

• TINY METAL's very own Nora must team up with everyone's favourite magnificent and majestic canine Commander in order to save the world, in a brand-new DLC campaign
• Outmanoeuvre enemies to help Caesar get back home to the Kingdom of Cherrystone
• Caesar brings a brand-new pixel art visuals in signature Wargroove style to the characters of TINY METAL: FULL METAL RUMBLE as pixelation spreads across the globe
• Players of the DLC campaign will be given an initial set of units which will be used throughout all 5 DLC chapters. Use survivalist tactics and Caesars inspiring nature to ensure as many units as possible make it through to the very end!

Oh lawd, he comin! We're so happy to finally share with you some exciting new Wargroove merch, in the form of this adorable Caesar plush!
(Wargroove vinyl for scale sold separately via Yetee Records & Boss Battle Records) We've been working with the team at The Yetee on this very good boy for some months now. The idea to make a plush Caesar has been floating around since the early days of Wargroove development, and it was a pleasure to bring him to life with the Yetees talented designers and all their plush expertise. We went through a few iterations until he was just right, consulting the development team here at Chucklefish all the way through. We frequently referred to photos of the dog breed that Caesar is based on, which, if youre a Caesar fan youll undoubtedly know is a Great Pyrenees. The trickiest parts were the ears and the expression, we wanted him to be as cute as can be so, in the end, we went for Caesars happy expression which you see when he wins a battle (or when its dinner time). Our Caesar Plush is available to purchase right now on The Yetee store for $26, and ships worldwide from the US. We hope you all enjoy this huggable pup as much as we do!

The wait is over - our big, new, free DLC Wargroove: Double Trouble is available now to download! Team up and lead the new Outlaw faction to strategic victory! Designed with co-op play in mind, this expansion adds a new story campaign introducing all-new Outlaw Commanders and much more! 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 https://store.steampowered.com/app/1061140/Wargroove_Double_Trouble/ Wargroove: Double Trouble introduces:

Happy New Year! Let's start 2020 off with a bang... Our *free* DLC, Wargroove: Double Trouble, will be ransacking digital stores on February 6th! The PS4 version will be on the way soon, date to be revealed. Just like the main release, it will be playable in 11 languages and you can wishlist it right now. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1061140/Wargroove_Double_Trouble/ Take a look at our brand new Wargroove: Double Trouble trailer created by our super talented Technical Designer Armagon: [previewyoutube=Hd0e8WZxEh4;full][/previewyoutube] Development on Wargroove: Double Trouble actually started before the release of the base game. Work kicked off in the period between the end of Wargroove's core development and the game's release when Wargroove was going through localization, testing, and platform submissions. We knew that we wanted to expand upon Wargroove's story and create some new characters, but a real focal point for us was the local co-op gameplay element. As a studio we always really enjoyed playing Wargroove together, so creating a shorter campaign that could be played couch co-op felt like a no-brainer. Another element set from the beginning was the idea of a 2-in-1 Commander, which we felt was not only unique but also fit the theme really well. Here's a concept animation sheet showing how we looked at the ways the twins' actions would work together. It's pretty cool to see a breakdown of how Errol's amulet also comes into play, igniting dynamite for Orla's slingshot attack and generating a protective shield when defending!
Can't remember what else is in the DLC? Here's a quick recap!

• 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 maps
• Public and Private Multiplayer Lobbies
• Custom maps now playable online
• New Volcano map theme and more updates to the custom Editor tools
• Outlaw music tracks, composed by Phonetic Hero
• And much more!

Wargroove is a modern take on the simple yet deep turn-based tactical gameplay popularised in the 2000s by handheld games such as Advance Wars. As big fans of those games we were disappointed to find that nothing in this genre was available on current generation platforms and set out to fill the gap ourselves. One of the most common pieces of feedback we get on Wargroove is that the game is either far too difficult or far too easy - which makes balancing it that much more difficult! Though, even as developers we sometimes struggle getting that S-rank and have even failed our missions, embarrassingly, on stream in front of the community. If youre anything like the majority of us, then youll know that sucking at the game is half the fun. If you think Wargroove deserves your vote as the Best Game You Suck At, click the tab above. Thank you!
