The development for Wargroove is coming to a close and Chucklefish has revealed a new gameplay video showcasing many of the game’s outstanding features.

Wargroove is based off a retro turn-based strategy game featuring various gameplay modes, including online play. It can be played for up to 4 players and will be playable in various languages.

Check out the localization update, trailer, and details below:

We know many of you have been eager to find out what languages Wargroove will be available to play in when it launches, and now that localisations are fully underway we’re happy to confirm the game will be playable in English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian, Japanese as well as Traditional &Simplified Chinese.

We’re really hoping these languages will be available at launch, but as they’re still undergoing translation work please keep in mind we won’t be able to confirm exactly when they’ll be available until closer to the release. Rest assured though, they’re in the works! In terms of any other languages, we’re not ruling out further localisation at this point, but this is what is planned for the time being.
