While strategy fans have plenty of great options this year, from the upcoming Frostpunk 2 and Total War: Pharaoh Dynasty update to the already launched Homeworld 3 and Manor Lords, one game we’ve been watching with interest is Tempest Rising. Created in the spirit of the classic Command and Conquer series, Tempest Rising seems like the natural successor to a style of RTS that’s laid dormant for far too long. And now, as part of the TactiCon 2024 celebrations, you can get a firsthand look at how it’s shaping up with today’s launch of a new Steam demo.
