The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“War Commander started life as a Facebook Web Game and requires changes to better suit the Desktop platform. Some of these are obvious while others will require some experimentation and community feedback. We plan to use this time to improve the visuals, audio, controls and gameplay. Early Access phase is a quite important aspect of the game release as community feedback and suggestions are very valuable to help the game take the final form.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“It is our intent to be in early access for about a year, using this time to refine the game for the desktop platform. This would put the full release at the beginning of 2027.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“Improved user interface, new audio and a new game mode are some of the intended additions for the full version. We also aim to improve how assets are loaded and managed in order to make updates easier.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“War Commander has been running for 13+ years and has a vast array of content to pull from. Please see the About This Game section for more details about what is in the current game. Being a web game we are creating a specific desktop version. This will include all of the existing gameplay such as base building, world map exploration, real time battles and unit upgrades and customization.

That said, it has been a game where the gameplay evolves through periodic events and does not have a persistent state or an easy way for new players to catch up. We aim to create a more involved ‘story mode’ as well as other changes to UI and gameplay to better fit a PC / Desktop game.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“War Commander will remain a free to play game. No price changes are intended for in game currency.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“There is a Discord server running for those who value a more active discussion but we also intend to run periodic play tests of new features and improvements. We will use Discord, Steam’s discussion feature and surveys to collect feedback from players.”

About This Game

War Commander is a large-scale MMO RTS set in a post-apocalyptic world. Players take the role of the Commander in an effort to push back the forces of chaos and destruction and attempt to rebuild. Welcome to the apocalypse, Commander. 

The air is thick with the fog of war, and the horizon crawls with hostile factions hungry for control. Yet this small plot of land is ours to defend and expand. Daily Targets, Weekly Missions, and Monthly Events ensure there’s always a new challenge to tackle, rewarding quick thinking and decisive action. In this world, hesitation is fatal. The weak are eaten; the strong rewrite history and forge empires from ruin.

From humble beginnings, watch your base evolve from a modest military outpost into a heavily fortified citadel capable of withstanding the most brutal of assaults. Manage resource production to keep your war machine running, invest in research institutions to unlock cutting‑edge technology, and expand your military infrastructure to support larger, deadlier forces. Your base is more than a cluster of buildings, it’s your lifeline in a wasteland that wants you dead. Customize your base and make it your own while protecting it from all who would challenge you.

Study the World Map to survey all the hostile targets scattered across your Sector. Each one represents a rogue base, enemy encampment, or fortified threat waiting to be dismantled. Clearing these targets grants valuable rewards, resources, and opportunities to strengthen your forces. Deploy your platoons strategically and strike fast. In this world, if you don’t take the shot, someone else will.

Daily and Weekly Missions provide a steady stream of objectives designed to test your skills and reward your efforts. Whether you’re destroying enemy bases, upgrading your forces, or gathering resources, each completed task brings you closer to major payouts and long‑term progression. These missions keep your war effort moving forward and offer a clear path toward building a stronger, more capable army.

Each month introduces new units to recruit, experiment with, and master. Upgrading your troops unlocks their full combat potential, transforming basic soldiers and vehicles into elite battlefield assets. Equip them with powerful tech components to modify their behavior, enhance their strengths, and tailor them to your preferred playstyle. With the right upgrades, even a modest platoon can become a devastating force capable of turning the tide of battle.

The Sector is never safe for long. New threats emerge every month, bringing fresh Operations packed with multi‑stage challenges and high‑stakes encounters. These events demand strategic unit selection, tactical precision, and careful planning to overcome. Completing Operations rewards you with the latest units, tech, and upgrade materials.  All are essential tools for staying competitive in an ever‑evolving warzone. Dive into each monthly event and prove your worth on the battlefield.

If mere survival isn’t enough, take the fight directly to other Commanders. Launch assaults on rival platoons, raid their bases, and assert your dominance across the Sector. Every victory strengthens your reputation and secures your place among the elite. But remember, every attack invites retaliation. Other Commanders are watching, waiting, and eager to strike back. Only the most cunning and ruthless will rise to the top.
