Gone are the days of coming up with key words for google searching strategy games. For the past year Zakh has been my go to when it comes to looking for games, not only because of his calm and soothing voice. Or the sense of wisdom and serenity that Zakh transmits. It is because Zakh is thorough, he investigates the depths of the internet to find that one indie game nobody knows about. Let this vast list stand as a demonstration of the volume of his work. (Sorry for the grandiloquence, I've been reading too many warhammer novels)
I've always been looking forward to the Strategy videos each year to know what is upcoming still and what is new. Stormgate and Zerospace are the two that's been on my mind for sometime. And copium, but hoping for a Red Alert 2 remaster if ever.
Thanks so much for all the research you put into this. There were several that made it past my lists, not surprising, considering how many are coming out in the next year or 2.
Zakh, if you're interested in learning more about Anvil: Empires and how it might turn out, you can also check out Foxhole, also by Siege Camp. The two games have a similar aspect of being massively multiplayer with hundreds of players battling and developing logistics lines. Foxhole has a pretty large and consistent playerbase, so I imagine Anvil will also perform quite well, in an emerging genre.
Great video as usual. Thanks for this service it's always so informative. Also I was thinking that it might be a good idea, if you put a little icon or just a little notification on the games, you have an additional video on. Like Manor Lords for example... You have at least one video on that game specifically and I think it would be a nice quality of life thing for the viewer, that doesn't require too much work on your side.
I admire your dedication for constant creation of these lists ;) this one has length of a good movie :D i'm gonna prep my popcorn and watch it tonight instead of Netflix :P
Cheers for the list, this kind of list is so helpful. By the way, there is an RTS you missed called Arcane Wilds. It just released a demo on steam. The graphics are a fairly basic but the gameplay is very good. The demo has heaps of content too. I've sunk a bunch of hours into it already lol. I feel the devs really deserve a shout out... maybe you could mention them in the future.
Glad you found it useful! And as I mentioned there's over 1000 Strategy games in development, so I basically didn't mention 1000 games here. Arcane Wilds is planning 2-4 years in early access and it hasn't begun, so even though it's a thing, it could be a 2028 game and 2026 earliest for a full release. Considering that, I'll probably only mention it for 2025 onwards if it goes into early access first.
What an epic year for RTS! Thank you for including me, "Nuke Them All" is an exciting indie RTS game set to launch in 2024, and we've already released the Demo, which is why we're reaching out to Steamers. It's a unique game in the style of classic golden-era RTS titles like Z, KKND, and C&C Red Alert. The primary objective is to capture flags and territories, speeding up production, upgrading factories, and ultimately destroying the enemy fort! Our demo is finally LIVE on steam! Please wishlist! The new update is live
RTS player here. Mechabellum is a very fun game! I already have 100 hours in it, since I got it last august. It is my first autobattler and I love playing chess with all these different mechs. The game is still in development, but there's already enough now to really enjoy it.
I love that some RTS games are finally going back to the single player campaign side of things. I was never really into multiplayer aspect of these games and always preferred to play a fun campaign. As for TFC: The Fertile Crescent is that only multiplayer or will it have a single player component? That one looks interesting.
I also love campaign rts too and I'm happy developers are putting the work there. But just want to say that competitive rts is not as bad as people say. Most games are like drunk toddlers in a fist fight.
Holy Cow, this video is really huge and has so many good games included quite awesome work! I really recommend to check out Dominions 6. Most impressive game in my opinion play it since part 2, over 20 years ago. For the RTS genre, i really liked Rise of Nation, who whas designed by the same game director who allready did Civ2 and Alpha Centauri, Brian Reynolds, but i gladly look into Age of Mythology Retold, too hope the God system stays the same in the remake, that was the most interesting part in that game as this changed what spells and units you could use, so added MASSIVE replay value, which is a key element in all strategy games to stay relevant in the long run. Xenonauts 2 is on my radar, too if i only could carve out time to play all these games... Because i still enjoy Daggerfall Unity with the DREAM mod. :P
I think the idea of districts in CivVI came from Fallen Enchantress rather than Endless Legend. In EL, they act as kind of a sphere of influence of the city, while in FE they actually play a role you build them for. CivVI builds further on that. EL districts, I think, went on to inspire Planetfall/AoW4 system of city expansion.
Haha thanks for clarifying, people are still demanding Manor Lords on lists and they aren't joking, so it can be hard to tell. Glad you're enjoying it!
Thanks! Oh and yeah I didn't mean that was the 40k universe, but it's from devs of a 40k game and the setting is 40k-esque as it's a sci-fi future with biomechanical abominations. I meant to say 'like 40k', so fans of 40k would like this too.
@GamerZakh oh man, thanks for the reply! I've been a big fan of yours for years- in particular I discovered Frostpunk and Planet Zoo through you. You yearly upcoming games videos are a bit of a yearly tradition at this point. Thanks for all you do!
Annihilate the Spance looks like it is based on the Annihilate Everything games I played on Kongregate. Happy to see a sequel that doesn't require flash.
Haha and this is when I've filtered out 1000 games. This is the top 10% and there's plenty in the 90% that's still worth checking out (of course not everything).
Nice one :) Crazy to think of there is so much going on outside AAA, but good job on doing so and filtering all, they all look really promising. btw Zakh, when is the next Morrowind Remastered episode coming out ? I love those and how you role play them. :) @@GamerZakh
@@JAmonOfficial I was really enjoying the new Morrowind playthrough but people just weren't watching, and unfortunately I gotta focus on better performing things for now because of financial reasons.
Hey Zakh! Just stumbled across this, thanks so much for covering our game Songs of Silence in this huge masterlist of great games! It means a lot to us to see fans hyped about this game! And we will have even more news soon. If you're interested in more, I've send you an E-mail :)
I listed Moduwar for years, I even have a dedicated video on it from 2020. The last 2 years, development of Moduwar has been stalled and although it's picking up again now I'm not going to list it again until it's actually proven to be fully back in development.
Thanks Zakh !!! What a list ! Amazing video... I hope those games won't be pushed back to 2025 but I have a bad feeling when most of those games do not have any precise release date when we are in 2024. I can't wait enough for Solium Infernum... Played the original quite a bit. (it seems this one has the "horror/hell" element toned down quite a lot though, graphically speaking) You should definitely play ARMEGGEDON EMPIRES, I was hooked even more on that one but no tutorial, only a pdf to read, a bit painful but worth it ! So many interesting titles... Keeping track of a bunch of them. There's also Moduwar, Q2 2024 Siege of Irdor, no date but 2024 most likely Ardent seas, same Cold Engine, unknown Grimstar: Crystal are the new oil! , Q1 2024 IAH: Internet War, 2024 Mythos: Build and Survive, 2024 Existence: The Outer Reach, coming soon (2024, most likely but who knows?) Dust Front RTS, thought that one to be 2024 but to be announced Agony: Lords of Hell... thought I saw 2024 somewhere And then, for a little new one I noticed during the solds "Exodus: Black Sun", set as coming soon, 2024-ish maybe? That title really came out of nowhere. Finally, I want to rage a little at Falling Frontier as that one was pushed to 2025 but trying to look for info about the game, the development seems like it is not going very well and the game would not be anything more than "an engine demo". With all this, you can make another video, right? right? Come on !!! Pretty please with a cherry on top !
@@GamerZakh City Building? Why not... I wouldn't have classed them as such but why not? What are the various reasons? You got info about them being delayed to 2025 or later? Or are most likely in development hell like falling frontier? Moduwar and Dust Front looked pretty okay for 2024 I thought. Also, I haven't heard about Sins of a Solar Empire 2 for a while now, weren't they supposed to release anytime soon? At least release on steam?
@@mesarthim640 For example, I listed Siege of Irdor in a mini city building list already. Mythos, that's been in development for many years now and no sign of it releasing, so it's not going in the main list anymore. Moduwar, another I've listed for years and even have a dedicated video 4 years ago, so it doesn't go in the main list anymore. I actually first listed Moduwar in 2018. Falling Frontier was set for 2023, then it last minute delayed to 2025, and I've listed it for many years and it keeps being pushed so I'm not listing it again until it gets a release date. Exodus: Black Sun is working on an Alpha, so it's not gonna be a 2024 game, might list it next year. Basically there's a lot of reasons for a lot of things, I could spend all day explaining the process of curating these videos. And like I say at the start of this video, there's literally over 1000 games upcoming with the 'Strategy' label on Steam. You could make infinite videos on that but I don't for many reasons.
@@GamerZakh Ah, makes sense ! Thanks for taking the time to answer :) I know what you mean with the "strategy" tag on steam, this is something that really irks me quite a bit because many of those titles do not deserve the "strategy" tag like city buildings and tactical which are totally different. Also, they should separate 4x, turn based, rts, ... into their own section instead of regrouping everything under strategy which would make searching a lot better. I get often hyped by the "strategy" tag then get very disappointed when I see it's not the genre I had hoped.
Civ 6 released 8 years ago and a lot of people don't like it, and Civ 7 hasn't been revealed at all. That spawns competition because they see an opening.
out of this massive list one game i will look forward to seeing come out and thats Collapsed Galaxy 2 was hoping to see if there was any american civil war games coming out
Upd: Classified France 44, is not that challenging. Bought it at release. At first mechanics can be a bit overwhelming (though outdated), but once you get the hang of it, it's easy to complete with highest rate of success. To get a good ending, remember to conquer most influencing sectors and recruit FFP as much as possible at the main map. Additionally the most important skill for everyone is the addition of AP. That's about it
I dont know if Zakh spends more time playing Ceasars or making lists. Also you can use this video as a drinking game. You take a shot everytime he says free demo.
@@Stukov961 It's not labelled early access. The Epic Store has a label for early access games just like Steam, so if it's still in early access it should be labelled as such. The developers have labelled it 'released' by not labelling it as 'early access', so it's released. The game is even version 1.X+, and marking a version as 1.0 or higher is another indicator that it's released. If the game isn't complete, then they're avoiding labelling it early access and it's false advertising. So either the game is released and it doesn't fit these lists, or the game is falsely mislabelling itself to trick buyers in which case I'm not sure if I want to promote it at all. Which do you think it is?
@@GamerZakh Huh. Well to be fair I haven't really checked in on it since the first playtest. From a quick skim over their website, looks like the latest faction that was added was January 11th
@@GamerZakh On a second look through the blog updates on their website, I can't see any posts about Advent, the third of three races from the original, and the second out of two subfactions for the Vasari was just added in mid-January, as mentioned. So it very much looks like they are still actively developing it, regardless of what the EGS tags say.
Oh yeah I didn't mean that was the 40k universe, but it's from devs of a 40k game and the setting is 40k-esque as it's a sci-fi future with biomechanical abominations. I meant to say 'like 40k', so fans of 40k would like this too.
paradox are killing [or at least reducing their fame and expenditure] their own games at the moment with cs2. Just as many are playing cs1 as they are 2 [infact 13:30 UK time, 11.4k are playing CS1 and 7.4k cs2]. Their [just like ea (TW: Pharaoh) etc.] constant poor and overpriced dlc's will kill some off too. Edit: Nice comprehensive list! Thanks. Got 8th March 2024 as the release date for Homeworld 3.
SimCity got updates, removed the always online requirement, and expanded city size. It even got an expansion. They basically fixed all the main problems people had with it but it was too late. People moved on to Cities Skylines. If Cities Skylines was never made, it's likely people would've come back around to SimCity. Look at No Man's Sky, Cyberpunk 2077, and so many other games that release bad but eventually pull it back. But if during the recovery time another game gets made and it's better, people no longer wait for the broken game to be fixed. Paradox saw the opening and struck, which buried SimCity forever.
@@GamerZakh So that's what happened to Sim City. I stand corrected: It committed suicide, was rushed to A&E by a kindly neighbour where it was shocked back to life, then went through months' of rehab, only to go back home and find a better game had moved into its house, whereupon it crawled into a dark alley and drank itself to death on supermarket wine.

Industrial Annihilation apparantly renamed themselves to Planetary Annihilation: TITANS
@@petrino Planetary Annihilation: TITANS is a 2015 game that's already released, so I don't think they renamed it to that.
@@GamerZakh Now I am thoroughly confused because the game I found looks exactly like that game, and I cannot find Industrial Annihilation anywhere.
82. Survive the Fall looks like mobile garbage so I am fully not on par with your opinion, to trashcan with it.

Zakh, if you're interested in learning more about Anvil: Empires and how it might turn out, you can also check out Foxhole, also by Siege Camp. The two games have a similar aspect of being massively multiplayer with hundreds of players battling and developing logistics lines. Foxhole has a pretty large and consistent playerbase, so I imagine Anvil will also perform quite well, in an emerging genre.

Dominios 6 why play 16-bit game graphic megadrive 1990, when we have Totalwar and strategygame 2025 ?
Because apparently people hate the new Totalwar.
niceeee
What's with all of the Civilization Clones?
Civ 6 released 8 years ago and a lot of people don't like it, and Civ 7 hasn't been revealed at all. That spawns competition because they see an opening.
out of this massive list one game i will look forward to seeing come out and thats Collapsed Galaxy 2 was hoping to see if there was any american civil war games coming out
what game is it at 0:16 if i may ask?
That's Crusader Kings 3.
@@GamerZakh thank you!
D.O.R.F looks to me like an homage to KKND
I want a new Heroes Of Might and magic game.
But made by a competent team, with lots of items to collect, buildings and units to crate in your town.
Upd: Classified France 44, is not that challenging. Bought it at release. At first mechanics can be a bit overwhelming (though outdated), but once you get the hang of it, it's easy to complete with highest rate of success. To get a good ending, remember to conquer most influencing sectors and recruit FFP as much as possible at the main map. Additionally the most important skill for everyone is the addition of AP. That's about it
Thanks for the update! Always useful to see what people think of these games.
ny Wishlist is about to be doubled
Holy mother of megalists...
Rising Lords has a 1/18/24 release date they gave out on 12/12.
Does that means terminator dark defiance doesn't promise, since it's not on the list? :P
I listed that a lot for 2023, they delayed last minute but unless they delay again it should be out soon.
Man how much time did this one video take???
Uh that's a lot of information! I still pray for Warlords Battlecry 4...maybe someday...
Infection Free Zone not even mentioned? :(
It's in the tower defence list.
ok, thanks I'll check! Do you have access to super early access of IFZ?@@GamerZakh
I dont know if Zakh spends more time playing Ceasars or making lists. Also you can use this video as a drinking game. You take a shot everytime he says free demo.
Arc Seed looks heavily based on Neon Genesis Evangelion (an anime).
are there really going to be 92 strategy games coming out this year?
There's likely to be 1000 strategy games coming out this year, I didn't mention 90% of them.
And what about Workers & Resources: Soviet Republic?
Thats a city building game.
Not betting on a meaningful release of Sins of a Solar Empire 2 in 2024 I take it?
It already released in 2022, it's on the Epic store. Been out for over a year.
@@GamerZakh Technically yes, but it's basically early access still.
@@Stukov961 It's not labelled early access. The Epic Store has a label for early access games just like Steam, so if it's still in early access it should be labelled as such. The developers have labelled it 'released' by not labelling it as 'early access', so it's released. The game is even version 1.X+, and marking a version as 1.0 or higher is another indicator that it's released. If the game isn't complete, then they're avoiding labelling it early access and it's false advertising. So either the game is released and it doesn't fit these lists, or the game is falsely mislabelling itself to trick buyers in which case I'm not sure if I want to promote it at all. Which do you think it is?
@@GamerZakh Huh. Well to be fair I haven't really checked in on it since the first playtest. From a quick skim over their website, looks like the latest faction that was added was January 11th
@@GamerZakh On a second look through the blog updates on their website, I can't see any posts about Advent, the third of three races from the original, and the second out of two subfactions for the Vasari was just added in mid-January, as mentioned. So it very much looks like they are still actively developing it, regardless of what the EGS tags say.
Pretty sure Zephon is not set in Warhammer 40k unless i missed something
Oh yeah I didn't mean that was the 40k universe, but it's from devs of a 40k game and the setting is 40k-esque as it's a sci-fi future with biomechanical abominations. I meant to say 'like 40k', so fans of 40k would like this too.
👍👍💪🏼💪🏼
paradox are killing [or at least reducing their fame and expenditure] their own games at the moment with cs2. Just as many are playing cs1 as they are 2 [infact 13:30 UK time, 11.4k are playing CS1 and 7.4k cs2].
Their [just like ea (TW: Pharaoh) etc.] constant poor and overpriced dlc's will kill some off too.
Edit: Nice comprehensive list! Thanks. Got 8th March 2024 as the release date for Homeworld 3.
Holyshit 😳
ZEPHON has no steam demo
Ah sorry they must've ended it, but it's likely they'll have another and footage of that demo will be around.
Paradox didn't kill Sim City, Sim City committed suicide.
SimCity got updates, removed the always online requirement, and expanded city size. It even got an expansion. They basically fixed all the main problems people had with it but it was too late. People moved on to Cities Skylines. If Cities Skylines was never made, it's likely people would've come back around to SimCity. Look at No Man's Sky, Cyberpunk 2077, and so many other games that release bad but eventually pull it back. But if during the recovery time another game gets made and it's better, people no longer wait for the broken game to be fixed. Paradox saw the opening and struck, which buried SimCity forever.
@@GamerZakh So that's what happened to Sim City. I stand corrected: It committed suicide, was rushed to A&E by a kindly neighbour where it was shocked back to life, then went through months' of rehab, only to go back home and find a better game had moved into its house, whereupon it crawled into a dark alley and drank itself to death on supermarket wine.
@@earlofdoncaster5018 Haha at some point the metaphor breaks down
@@GamerZakh Just don't mix those metaphors.
still no xcom3 😭
so twilight imperium almost. in 1 hour.
