Coming Soon To Early Access

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

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Player feedback is critical to making Sheep Tag 2 the best game it can be. With Early Access we can begin to gather and incorporate player feedback to improve the game, which makes Early Access players essential in shaping the future of Sheep Tag 2.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“For at least a year, but depending on player feedback and additional content we choose to put in the final game, it may take longer.”

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

“Much of what we planned at the start of Early Access is now in the game, including player profiles, stat tracking, leaderboards, achievements, many more farms, units and skins, and a much more capable level editor. We plan to keep building on all of it.

We plan to add a single player campaign and more PvE content, and possibly co-op modes. We plan to add more competitive features such as ranked seasons and tournaments. We also plan to keep adding farms, items, units and skins, and to keep improving the level editor and Steam Workshop support.

Sheep Tag 2 is a live service game. We plan to keep balancing it and releasing updates for as long as we reasonably can, with player feedback guiding what comes next.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Sheep Tag 2 is a fully playable game with all the content you would expect from a free to play competitive game. It supports up to 32 players online in a PvP or PvE format. One team is Sheep and the other team is Wolves. Wolves can capture Sheep turning them into Spirits. Spirits can be saved by ally Sheep.

The game includes online multiplayer with in-game chat, bots for PvE matches, player profiles, stat tracking, leaderboards, achievements and medals earned during each Round. You can watch replays of your matches and save clips and highlights to share. There is a large selection of farms, units, skins and other cosmetics. Players can join or create Packs and show their Pack Tag next to their name. Sheep Tag 2 also includes an in-game level editor with Steam Workshop support, so players can build and share their own terrains.

Many of these features are new and need testing with a full community. Your feedback will help us decide which features to focus on next. For more information read below and check out the guides on our website.”

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

“The game will not be priced differently, we have every intention of keeping it free-to-play.”

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

“We are highly active and responsive in our community Discord. We communicate with players on game balance, design, bugs, and other issues to make the game the best it can be.”

About This Game

Sheep Tag 2 is a Free-To-Play, Team-Based, Asymmetric, Real-Time Strategy Game. Sheep have to survive until the timer hits zero. Wolves have to capture every last Sheep before time runs out.

You can learn Sheep Tag 2 in a single round. Move, build, survive. The rest you'll pick up by playing. Learn against bots first with scaling difficulties who can play either side.

Its survival, base building, resource management, MOBA-style micro, and genuine teamwork all compressed into one heart-pounding round.

Play as a Sheep - small, fast, and completely defenseless. Your only weapons are farms and your own skill to frantically build them. Build a fortress of farms to keep out those savage wolves.

OR

Play as a Wolf - Stalk the map and tear down those farms to capture the sheep. Every hunt is a puzzle. Your job is to leave the Sheep with nowhere to run.

Up to 32 players online with unique game modes and rulesets you can change on the fly. Party with friends or fill the lobby with bots.

Solo players can have fun with scaling bot difficulties that play both Sheep and Wolf. Warm up alone, fill a lobby, or give yourself a challenge.

Sheep Tag came out of a map editor, so Sheep Tag 2 ships with one. A full in-game level editor, no external tools, no separate download.

A growing community library of player-made terrains, free to browse and download. Build it, host it, share it. Design a terrain and have your friends play it the same night.

Sheep Tag was there before nearly everything you associate with the Warcraft 3 custom map scene. It ran for two decades on one of the most stubbornly competitive communities the mod era ever produced, and at its peak it was rivaled only by DotA.

Sheep Tag 2 is the standalone successor, built as a standalone indie game by someone who spent years on the other side of the screen. It's a decade of work by one of the mod's most competitive players, on a mission to take something they love and turn it into a game anyone can click and play. Every mechanic in here has been argued over, broken, and rebuilt with the help of some of the best Sheep Tag players in the world.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

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

Generative AI became part of development in 2026, following ten years of work without it. It is now used across all areas of development to help a solo developer expand the game. This work builds on the visual style and original models established by real artists, and all AI-assisted content is manually reviewed and refined before inclusion.
