Back in January this year, developers Chucklefish added a new DLC campaign to their super-successful strategy hit Wargroove.

Wargroove is Chucklefish’s answer to “why don’t people make more Advance Wars-style games?” It turns out that, those kinds of games are still great and Wargroove was very well-received at launch.
