About This Game

Take Command of the Modern World

Available Now in Early Access

Global Protocol: New World Order is a data-driven grand strategy game set in the real world of 2026. Play as any of 261 playable countries — from global superpowers to developing states — and navigate the complex web of modern geopolitics, economics, warfare, and diplomacy.

Every country starts with real-world data: GDP, population, military strength, alliances, resources, and political systems. What happens next is up to you.

Every Nation, Your Way

Choose from 261 playable countries, each rated on a 5-star difficulty scale. Lead the United States and maintain global hegemony, guide Brazil through economic transformation, or take on the ultimate challenge with a fragile state fighting for survival. Over 4,600 provinces cover the entire world — every region matters.

Deep Strategic Systems

• Economy — Manage GDP growth, inflation, trade agreements, resource extraction, budgets, and construction. Build 69 different building types across economic, military, infrastructure, research, social, defense, and intelligence categories.
  
• Military — Command 17 unit types across land, sea, and air. Assemble armies, deploy fleets, launch air missions, manage logistics, and fight wars of attrition or lightning strikes.
  
• Technology — Research 53 technologies across Military, Civilian, and Space branches. Unlock new capabilities, improve your economy, and gain strategic advantages.
  
• Espionage — Build intelligence agencies, run covert operations, steal technology, sabotage rivals, and protect your own secrets. Real-world agencies like the CIA, MI6, FSB, and Mossad each bring unique advantages.

Shape the Global Order

Diplomacy goes far beyond simple alliances. Negotiate trade deals, impose multilateral sanctions through the UN Security Council, form and break military pacts like NATO or the Shanghai Pact, join economic blocs, and compete for prestige on the world stage. The G7, G20, and UNSC are active bodies whose decisions reshape the global balance of power.

A Living World

Each country is governed by its own AI personality — aggressive, cautious, opportunistic, or isolationist. 68 scripted events draw from real-world 2026 flashpoints, while procedural events react to your decisions. Alliance betrayals, economic crises, border disputes, and regime changes unfold dynamically. Every action has consequences that ripple across the globe.

Command Your Forces

Deploy infantry, armor, artillery, fighters, bombers, helicopters, destroyers, submarines, and carriers across a detailed world map. Establish air superiority, blockade enemy ports, transport armies across oceans, and manage the fuel and manpower that keep your war machine running. Fog of war ensures that intelligence is as valuable as firepower.

Nuclear Deterrence

The DEFCON system tracks global nuclear tension across 5 escalation levels. Nine nuclear-armed nations possess ICBMs, SLBMs, cruise missiles, tactical warheads, and hypersonic weapons. Launch a first strike — or hold your arsenal as the ultimate deterrent. Mutual Assured Destruction is not just a theory; it is a game mechanic.

Victory on Your Terms

Pursue one of 5 victory conditions:

• Military Hegemony — Dominate through territorial control and unchallenged military power
  
• Economic Dominance — Build the world's largest economy with unrivaled trade networks
  
• Diplomatic Victory — Win global support through prestige, alliances, and UN influence
  
• Tech Supremacy — Lead the world in research and technological advancement
  
• UN Mandate — Shape international law through decades of diplomatic leadership

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

This game uses generative AI in the following ways:

Art assets: Store page capsule art, in-game UI icons (unit types, building types, resource types, cursors, notification icons), and promotional imagery were created with the assistance of generative AI tools, then reviewed, composited, and finalized by the development team. Country flags are real-world flags sourced from public datasets, not AI-generated.

Audio: Sound effects and music tracks were generated with the assistance of AI tools, then curated, edited, and mixed by the development team.

Map and terrain: Map textures, heightmaps, and province geometry are derived from real-world public domain geodata (Natural Earth shapefiles, NASA SRTM elevation data), not generated by AI.

Game data: Country statistics, province data, economic figures, and military data are sourced from real-world public datasets (World Bank, REST Countries API, Natural Earth) and processed through deterministic data pipelines, not generated by AI.

Gameplay and simulation: Game logic, AI behavior, economic formulas, combat resolution, and diplomacy systems were developed with the assistance of AI coding tools, then reviewed, tested, and refined by the development team. No generative AI is used at runtime during gameplay.

Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

Global Protocol: New World Order is a grand strategy game that depicts modern geopolitical conflict, including warfare, military operations, nuclear weapons strategy, economic sanctions, and espionage. All content is presented at a strategic map level using unit icons, province overlays, and statistical readouts; there is no graphic violence, gore, blood, dismemberment, sexual content, nudity, or disturbing imagery. Nuclear strikes are represented by map effects and statistical consequences, not graphic depictions. The game involves themes of war, occupation, regime change, and global power competition in a political/strategic context appropriate for a general audience.
