Posted

wego-world-war-ii-overlordMatrix Games today officially announced WEGO World War II: Overlord, the upcoming operational-level wargame that recreates the iconic Allied invasion of Normandy and the campaign that followed.

Built on the proven Desert War/Stalingrad engine, this hex-based wargame challenges you to plan meticulously, anticipate enemy moves, and adapt under pressure in a WEGO simultaneous execution system that captures the true chaos of war.

What is included:

  • 14 Historical scenarios: from the brutal D-Day landings to a grand 135-turn campaign covering the entire Normandy offensive.
  • Hex-Based strategy: stylized maps of Normandy provide the perfect battlefield for operational-level planning.
  • Combined Arms Warfare: command infantry, armored divisions, airborne assaults, naval bombardments, and crucial air missions.
  • Logistics and Supply lines: maintain your offensive momentum by securing supply routes and reinforcing your units.
  • Multiple ways to play: battle against the AI, challenge friends in hotseat, or compete globally via PBEM multiplayer.

    • Unlike traditional turn-based (IGOUGO) games, WEGO introduces simultaneous planning and resolution. Issue your orders, anticipate enemy moves under fog of war, and watch as your plans unfold and sometimes with unexpected results! Every decision counts, and only the most cunning strategists will prevail.

    Stay tuned, WEGO World War II: Overlord is coming in September.
