Brass Tactics Is Now Available For Pre-Order

Brass Tactics Is Now Available For Pre-Order

A post on the Oculus blog has announced that VR war game, Brass Tactics, is available for pre-order on the Oculus Store. Brass Tactics takes real-time-strategy to the next level by placing you in the middle of the action on a fantastic clockwork battlefield. Experience the thrill of directly moving and interacting with your clockwork creations: grab structures and place them on the battlefield, and direct your units with the sweep of your hand. Just when you think you've mastered the game, raise the stakes by teaming up with other players in co-op mode or go head-to-head in PvP mode. The game essentially gives you the best aspects of a table-top war game, and indeed a massive tabletop is your battlefield, while also doing all the heavy lifting for you. So what you get is a real-time war strategy game with all the charm of a tabletop miniature. And as there is no assembly of minis, it saves your aching fingers.

Because Brass Tactics is a VR game, you can get as close to the action in the middle of the table as you need. Which is awesome for those of us who are on the shorter side of things.

The full post from the Oculus blog reads:

Originally announced at GDC, Brass Tactics went on to take both E3 and PAX West by storm, with Tom's Guide praising "both its solid mechanics and its visual polish" and Polygon calling it "an elaborate, immersive experience that might be one of the finest wargaming experiences ever brought to VR."

Today, we're excited to announce that pre-orders are now live on the Oculus Store!

The game is scheduled to launch October 19, and you can claim your copy in advance at a special pre-order discount of more than 15%!

This is the third VR title from Hidden Path Entertainment, and we couldn't be more excited. Last month, we sat down with CEO Jeff Pobst for an in-depth look at the studio behind Age of Empires II and Counter Strike: Global Offensive. Stay tuned to the blog next month for even more behind-the-scenes action when Brass Tactics launches on October 19.

You can check out some of Brass Tactics in action in the latest video, which is below.
