Atre: Dominance Wars, the new fantasy strategy from the Croatian studio Ironward, is now available in Early Access for PC on Steam and GOG. It is a real-time fantasy strategy that combines 4X empire building, tactical warfare, diplomacy, and god-like powers.
The story is set in a shattered world affected by a catastrophic event known as The Merge. Players take on the role of immortal Elders, wizards who have transcended mortality and now wage war for complete dominance. The path to victory is not only through military might but also through alliances, betrayals, temporary truces, and carefully choosing the moment for the final strike.
Atre: Dominance Wars places special emphasis on magic and exploration. Players can develop spells, alter their armies with mutations, summon devastating forces, and use magic to reshape the battlefield itself. As the campaign progresses, increasingly powerful abilities are unlocked, including divine-level spells that can change entire regions on the map.
The Early Access version already includes three campaign levels, skirmish, solo play, multiplayer, a map editor, and over 20 hours of content. Ironward states that the reason for the Early Access release is the desire for better development of the campaign and future content with player feedback.
Along with city building, territory expansion, diplomacy, and large battles, the game also features Avatars that can be equipped with artifacts, special abilities, and mutated armies. Atre: Dominance Wars supports single-player, cooperative play, and PvP multiplayer, and is aimed at players who enjoy strategies where alliances rarely last long, and ultimate victory belongs to only one ruler.
