King Art Games has released a new gameplay video for its upcoming real-time strategy game, Iron Harvest, showing some multiplayer action from the game’s alpha build. This new RTS aims to back to the roots of Company of Heroes and Warcraft to combine classic real-time strategy with modern technology in a unique setting.
The Alpha 2 build, which focuses on the multiplayer mode of the game and is available to those who have pre-ordered it, features two 1v1 maps (multiplayer & skirmish against AI), one 2v2 map (multiplayer & skirmish against AI; co-op), a reworked version of the first challenge map, 8 infantry units, 10 mechs, 2 weapon systems, 2 playable factions (Polania and Saxony), base buildings, bunkers and fortifications.
Iron Harvest will feature three playable factions with over 40 unit types and 9 heroes, three singleplayer campaigns with an overarching story (21 missions), Singleplayer & Co-op skirmish matches, Singleplayer & Co-op challenge maps, Competitive multiplayer (ranked matches, seasons) and free DLC & updates.
Enjoy!

some of the machines look like they were made by a 6 years old. terrible design. infantry combat still looks terrible and unsatisfying as well.
Insta-buy when it’s out. Reminds me of Company of Heroes.
i like the overall concept. Reminds me of an old microsoft game which i really cant remember right now (it was pretty good). I didnt pay too much attention to the video but if they get it even 75% close to being as enjoyable as company of heroes which is by far one of my favorite RTS’s then i;ll be a happy camper.
