10 September 2026
About this game
Wardogs is a large-scale all-out warfare FPS for up to 100 players, pitting three teams against each other in objective-based battles across destructible Eastern European industrial landscapes. It mixes tactical shooting and combined-arms combat with player-built fortifications, vehicles, and a cash-driven loadout system where every life starts with money that must be spent wisely on weapons, gear, utility, and transport. Teams fight for randomized control zones in matches shaped by teamwork, communication, and player choice.
