Warhounds on Steam

About This Game

Warhounds is a turn-based tactics & strategy game, inspired by XCOM and Jagged Alliance, about a mercenary squad with an old-school action-movie vibe. Command an elite team of bold, stylish operators, wage a campaign in an alternative-future Africa, and decide the war’s outcome mission by mission.

Be the commander.

Calculate lines of fire, flank and break cover, and seize the high ground. Every turn is decided by your planning and honest physics - not by RNG.

Hire fighters with personality.

Combine classes - Assault, Specialist, Sniper, Machine Gunner, and Grenadier. Pick the right gear for the job, treat and extract, protect key operatives. Take calculated risks - high combat lethality makes every decision count.

Between missions, run the base.

Recruit, upgrade, purchase equipment, handle logistics, finances, medical, and downtime. Choose allied factions, build relationships, gather intel, and execute covert ops. Your choices have consequences - access to missions, gear, and allies changes because of what you do.

Use tomorrow’s tools.

Deploy drones, combat scanners, smoke, and optical camo. Upgrade and improve your kit to win under any conditions.

Set the pace.

Knock out a mission in 25–40 minutes or settle in for long sessions. Tune the challenge - go for a brutal tactical hell or a light, relaxing run.

What awaits you:

• No point-blank misses and no bogus randomness.

• Real ballistics, destructible cover, vertical gameplay, and cone overwatch.

• Mercenaries with character and mission-focused loadouts without busywork.

• Base management, contracts, budgets, allies - and consequences for your actions.

Assemble the squad. Take the contract. Decide Africa’s future beyond 2035.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

AI-generated content disclosure

The game’s final visual content is fully hand-drawn and created by human artists. During early playtesting, we temporarily used AI-generated character portraits as placeholder assets for several squad members. These placeholder portraits were used only during the playtest stage and are not included in the current release build.

No generative AI is used to create content during gameplay.

No other parts of the game including code, 3D models, writing, dialogue, or voice acting use AI in any form.

Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

Characters may occasionally use strong language during combat. Combat includes blood effects, but there is no gore, dismemberment, or graphic violence. The game also contains depictions of alcoholic beverages and smoking while squad members relax in the base common room. There is no sexual content or nudity.
