Initially released on iOS in 2014 and then on Android a mere 6 months later, and with more than 3 million downloads in total, HeroCraft is releasing a remastered port to Steam via Early Access.
Space Wolf is a card driven, turn-based, tactical combat game, and is being upgraded and ported to PC using Early Access starting February 2017 with upgraded graphics and GUI. Dmitry Maksyura, Head of the Development Team states that he intends the PC version to be a relevant experience when looking for a PC game with the Warhammer title, and also compete with other similar games on Steam.
From the very beginning of the Early Access launch, the mobile version will be released with some minor changes and the community can help drive the direction and relevant changes needed, which is better then with ports done previously by other developers.
“Every member of our team is a Warhammer geek and we have been working on the mobile version of the game for two years already. But all this time we have been dreaming about developing and releasing the PC game on Steam and finally this is happening” – Maksyura.
The Steam version of Space Wolf will be remastered especially for PC players and will include:
There have been many a Mobile-to-PC ports recently, and there have been some really bad ones at that, we can only hope that HeroCraft won’t make those mistakes, unlike some other previous Warhammer ports. To note is the 40k Death Watch game by Rodeo Games, as mentioned by Total Biscuit, one failing is the lack of hover-over for stats on the PC version, lets not repeat that.
So, while Space Wolf cooks a bit more in the oven, head on over and stick it onto your ‘follow list’ to keep an eye on it as it further develops, or even wishlist it if you want.
