I went hands-on with Stormgate, and in lieu of a Starcraft 3, it's poised to become the new king of the RTS genre.
Starcraft was once the king of the real-time strategy genre, but as Activision Blizzard has made a move away from that genre and Starcraft as a whole, a massive vacuum has been left if you don’t enjoy multiplayer online battle arenas like League of Legends. That’s where Stormgate comes in.
Recommended Videos A true RTS If you’re even a little bit familiar with RTS games, the core gameplay loop of Stormgate will be instantly recognizable to you: gather enough resources to create buildings and units so you can ultimately create the better army and defeat your opponent. Players will be able to do that across single-player campaigns that evolve over time, a co-op mode, and multiplayer matches.
Instead, its focus clearly was on ensuring Stormgate was approachable and that the playable factions were all interesting in unique ways. Rather than staying strictly sci-fi like Starcraft, only the Vanguard faction fits that look exactly. The aggressive Infernals faction feels right out of Diablo, while the newly revealed Celestials look and play differently than any faction I’ve seen in an RTS before.
Not simplified, but more intuitive If you’re well-versed in RTS games, everything I’ve discussed so far is probably more than enough to let you make an informed decision about whether or not you want to play Stormgate. For those less familiar with the genre, the prospects of getting into a new RTS might seem extremely daunting. Thankfully, my playtime with Stormgate indicates that it will be very approachable.
