Press release:
London, UK – 5 October 2023.
The London-based (the UK) indie games publisher and developer Chucklefish and Hamelin-based (Germany) indie games developer Robotality, are today super happy and proud to announce that their turn-based strategy/adventure game “Wargroove 2” (the sequel to the multi award-winning “Wargroove”), is now available for PC (via Steam) and the Nintendo Switch (via the Nintendo Eshop).

“Wargroove 2” builds upon the original game’s charming pixel art and challenging turn-based combat with new Commanders, new game modes, and three new intertwining campaigns to explore. Players can utilise Wargroove 2’s new Supercharged Groove system to sway the fight in their favour, and put their tactical prowess to the test in the all-new roguelike game mode ‘Conquest’.

Go toe to toe with a brand new playable faction known as the Faahri Republic. Landing in Aurania on a scholarly expedition, these curious mouse-folk may lack military experience, but more than make up for it with their mysterious crystal technology and unmatched intelligence.
