Kuju Entertainment revives the Battalion Wars franchise for a new generation with the aptly titled sequel, Battalion Wars 2. Don't let the cute characters and colorful environments fool you however: this is a war game with some serious depth.
An action RTS game, in each mission you control an ever-growing battalion of land, sea and air units, including foot soldiers, tanks, artillery, mortars, bombers, submarines and more. You are always in direct control of one unit - which can be switched on the fly - but much of the game involves managing your troops on the battlefield. UGO gives Battalion Wars 2 an overall rating of B.
Battalion Wars is one of the most under-appreciated classics from the Nintendo GameCube. Part Splatoon, part Mario Kart, part old-school shooter, and all action, this game is fun and strategic. So now that we’ve had Advance Wars remastered, it’s time for Battalion Wars 1+2 on the Nintendo Switch with the following updated features.
The memories. Totally forgot about those games but I remember how fun they were.
I was just bringing this game up to a friend recently. He used to play them so much.
GameZone: "We take a look at 10 more titles that are worthy of your time and attention as our very serious list of the top 50 Wii titles rolls on."
SuperPhillip Central writes, "Here we are, ladies and gentlemen. If you have been following this series of five parts, then you have read about forty excellent Nintendo Wii titles that are worthy of being in one's library (at least in this writer's opinion). We have arrived at the final part where the final ten Wii games will be listed. If for some reason you missed out on a previous part, look at the end of this article for links to all four individual parts. On this final installment of The 50 Best Nintendo Wii Games, we examine the sequel to one of the most revolutionary games of the generation, we take a look at a *gasp* good 3D Sonic game, and we cheer on Kirby's 20th anniversary with a superb collection. Are you ready for the final ten Wii games?"
Does this game have local multiplayer?
I hope so
Dunno i'd rather just have a regular Advance Wars game like the GBA/DS games but with 3D graphics for the Wii, but i'd rent this at least to try it out.
I'm saving it as a purchase during the regular games lull next year.
it looks great too, especially since you can battle others online with it.
I've had this game for a few days now, and it's alot of fun. The thing about it though is if you don't have Wi-Fi, you'll definitely not have as much fun. The computer campaign while very fun seems like little more than a warm up/learning experience for online battling. It's a great little game, with very decent graphics, personality, and gameplay, but not very ambitious. I think the score given it is right on.
