What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Early Access is employed in order for our community to influence the development process before it's too late and changes cannot be implemented anymore. Feedback from the players is essential to optimize game mechanics, balance the game, improve performance, AI behavior, language localization, editors, and even overall game stability.

At this moment we already have a full playable core of the game, but there is still work that needs to be done. We will continue implementing new features, optimizing existing mechanics, adding more content, and working on other aspects of the game development process.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“As things stand, we are looking at around 3 to 12 months until the game leaves Early Access. The time period can be modified based on community input and testing results.. ”

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

“We are planning on adding more content and gameplay features while improving the existing systems and mechanics by further optimizing the game, fixing any issues, introducing balance changes, improving AI behavior, introducing language support, enhancing the editor, creating new maps, among others.

We also aim at further improving our game by making use of the feedback from the community during the process of developing the game.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current Early Access build already contains the basic game mechanics, scenarios that can be played, country systems, a map editor, multiplayer options, and a number of game mechanics.

It is expected that during the Early Access period, balancing, optimizations, fixes for bugs and errors, and other new contents will be added regularly.

More details about the game content and its current state may be found in the “About This Game” tab.”

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

“We can steadily increase the price based on the amount of new content, features, improvements, and updates we add while developing the game during Early Access phase”

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

“Community input is very important for the development of the game. Bug reports, improvement suggestions, gameplay feedback, map creations, and ideas can be discussed via the official community forums and the Discord server.

This feedback will definitely shape our balancing, gameplay development, future additions to the game, and development priorities during the entire Early Access period.”

About This Game

Modern Wars is a large scale world simulation where countries controlled entirely by AI compete through wars, diplomacy, uprisings, occupations, and political changes as the global situation develops on its own.

This is not a traditional strategy game. You mainly observe and shape simulations rather than directly command armies.

Alongside built-in maps and scenarios, the game lets you create completely custom worlds using powerful sandbox tools. You can edit borders, terrain, countries, cities, military forces, and world settings to build realistic geopolitical situations or entirely fictional universes. The game also supports community content through the Steam Workshop, with hundreds of downloadable scenarios covering modern conflicts, alternate history, fantasy settings, and more.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

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

This game originally was made fully by ai, ai is used for the code and text, the game is now being developed without ai.
