Kakao Games announced on the 10th that it has released details of the game on its official website ahead of the release of the new real-time strategy simulation game 'Stormgate'.

Currently, not only the development process but also the future development roadmap has been opened on the official website of 'Stormgate', raising expectations among RTS fans. In addition, information on races and heroes in 'Stormgate' and related videos can be found.

'Stormgate' is officially equipped with one-on-one competition, three-person cooperation, and campaign mode at the start of the service. In addition, new cooperative mode maps, new heroes dedicated to cooperative mode, and additional campaign missions will be updated within this year. In addition, the release of 'Map Editor', which developer Frost Giant Studios has been heavily mentioned since the beginning of its development, was also announced.

In particular, RTS fans are looking forward to the fact that 'Map Editor' broadens the content of the RTS genre according to the user's creativity and has a positive effect on the overall lifespan of the game. 'Map Editor' not only lets you set the game's terrain, unit layout, resource distribution, and building location in detail, but also adjusts detailed internal settings, so experienced users can expect new results beyond the genre limits of RTS when using them.

The synergy with Frost Giant Studios' self-developed 'Snowplay' is also a factor that RTS fans are paying attention to. 'Snowplay' is a dedicated engine for 'Stormgate' that is optimized for the genre nature of RTS, which manipulates multiple units simultaneously. It is equipped with various systems for map editor users as well as improving unit reaction speed. Detailed information on the system is scheduled to be released sometime this year, and will be officially introduced in 2025.
