Games You Have Probably Missed in the First Half of 2020

Is it really worth to kill time in free-to-play GTA 5 during the period of cancelled game showcases and delayed release of Cyberpunk? Definitely not! Many unique and interesting titles have been already released this year but you may have missed them.

Panzer Corps 2

Genre: turn-based strategy
Developer: Flashback Games
Platforms: PC

Although Panzer Corps 2 is a direct sequel to the 2011's game, there is a strong sense of the spirit of the original, which is still known from the 1990s' Panzer General series. So here we have a classical map divided into hexagonal fields and a turn-based combat system. The switch to the Unreal 4 engine added the third dimension to the traditional view and allowed a large number of units to be displayed at once while maintaining simplicity and legibility.

Unlike the visuals, the gameplay mechanics are based on the same proven core, being more an evolution of the genre than a revolution. The game features about 60 battle scenarios from World War II, played on every major side of the conflict, and the developers boast of recreating over a thousand unique models of combat units. In addition to the basic content, there is also a comprehensive scenario editor and the multiplayer mode in several different forms (including even in e-mail form!).
