Following On From Steam Achievements, Hybrid RPG/RTS Title WARSHIFT Gains A Frigid New Map

Certainly in the run-up for smallest yet most beautiful GIF in the world, WARSHIFT is using such tactics to showcase it's first major update in months. Arriving on the back of a simple Steam Achievement update back in December, the vibrant, hybrid world of WARSHIFT recently gained a new skirmish map through its late February patch.

Looking at one of the game's early gameplay trailers, there's great difficulty to be had when trying to place it within the confines of a specific genre. Billing itself as an RTS title just as much as being an action-oriented RPG, it's likely one that can only be fully understood by pouring in the hours typically needed to learn the ins and outs of a typical strategy game.

Arriving in the 1.94 update comes the game's largest map to date. Slotting into the Skirmish gamemode, Ice Fortress is the most spacious landscape the developers have ever thrown together. Promising plenty of flat surfaces ready to players to call home - but there's a high-rise plateau strategically positioned in the centre for those looking to rule the land below. Joining the single new map comes a noteworthy fix to a bug that's plagued Titan's turrent for some time alongside some balance changes that lack any more detail.
