Wardogs — PvP milsim from Battalion 1944 team enters early access in September
A closed playtest this past weekend showcased Wardogs, a PvP-only milsim FPS from the team behind Battalion 1944, which is scheduled for early access in September. The game centers on large maps, helicopter insertions and a persistent in-game economy that lets players buy loadouts, tip teammates and pay others to revive them, producing emergent role-based behavior. Those economy-driven choices — examples include a pilot holding over $35,000 and a player spending $300 to secure a revive — create risk-reward decisions that could shape its multiplayer appeal.
- Early access launch planned for September.
- Developed by the team behind Battalion 1944; a closed playtest ran this past weekend.
- Persistent in-game currency is core to gameplay: one pilot had over $35,000, players can buy loadouts (example: $2,600) and tip pilots ($25) or bribe others to revive them ($300).
- Gameplay features large maps, transport helicopters for insertions, VOIP and emergent player-driven roles (a pilot with zero kills ranked top-five by earnings).
