XR content specialist STOIC Entertainment will officially release the 1.0 version of 'Apes Warfare,' a turn-based strategy game co-developed with U.S. indie studio GigaQuests, on the Steam platform on April 29, 2026, at 10:00 AM. This official launch marks the end of a five-month early access period, during which the game was refined based on player feedback to deliver a more polished and strategic experience to users worldwide.

Inspired by the classic strategy game 'Advance Wars,' Apes Warfare reinterprets grid-based tactical systems with a modern sensibility. While maintaining a fast pace and intuitive controls, the game offers deep strategic gameplay where every turn's decision directly impacts the outcome. The full version introduces a campaign mode featuring 35 missions and a new Domination mode focused on large-scale battles, adding further depth to the gameplay.

Key features include a map editor that allows users to design their own battlefields and a global leaderboard for competing against players worldwide. The game also offers diverse environments—such as jungles, volcanoes, and snowy plains—where terrain characteristics affect combat and movement, requiring fresh strategic responses each time. The development team has focused on building an optimized environment through system enhancements, including improved AI intelligence, refined controls, and unit balancing.

The STOIC Entertainment development team has actively incorporated community feedback collected through various channels, including Steam, Discord, and Reddit, to evolve the game. Following the official launch, the team plans to continue supporting user-generated content (UGC) and providing regular updates to foster a long-term strategy game ecosystem that grows alongside its players. In particular, the expanded War Arena mode and multiplayer-exclusive maps are expected to maximize replayability.

The official launch price for Apes Warfare is ₩12,000 ($14.99) in the Korean market, with a 10% special discount available for a limited time to celebrate the release. The game is available to play now via the Steam store, where users can experience a wide range of content from single-player campaigns to global competition. Detailed information and future update news can be found on the official Steam page and related community channels.
