Top 12 Upcoming Grand Strategy Games!

For some reasons the time stamps we entered for this video didn't take properly and we only noticed a few hours later. This is now fix and rest assured is a staple of what we do at LT Gaming. We do enjoy a light touch presentation but timestamps are a must 🚀🚀🚀

Master of Command looks really interesting! In particular, I like the art style - reminds me of the Osprey military history books.

[paulwallis]

Well done! That would be one of the most genuinely useful previews I've seen in years. I've got used to dreading fizzy strat games and tedious sales pitches from non-gamers. Great work!

[jayny]

I played Kaiserpunk when the demo was out last year and really enjoyed it. Other games caught my eye as well. Thanks for another great list!

[bojcio]

I've been making this journey my whole life :). Both cities are very nice.

[Smenkhaare]

All of these games will be on my playlist except for Expiocracy and Heart of the Machine. The other titles should be hits in their niche groups. I loved Crusader Kings II and now Crusader Kings III. Stellaris is hit or miss for me as many of the mechanics are not transparent. It can still be a good game. I play Stellari modded in the Star Wars universe as the Empire or in the Star Trek universe as the Federation. This is a great list and description. My only slight quibble is that I would want you to go deep in each and every game. lol.

Great video! Added both Gilded Destiny and Beyond Astra to my Wishlist ... if you guys keep these videos up, my wishlist will be unmanageable before too long!

[cobra_overseergames]

Thank you very much for adding Kaiserpunk to your video, it is much appreciated!🙂

[HobGobMob]

Atre: Dominance Wars looks very compiling, hope to get more info in near future.

[Magnumaniac]

Some great leads here - looks like my wishlist grows again. Particularly like the look of Liegecraft.

[MrPigfarmer]

Even without timestamps this was great

[HistoryTeacherSteve]

Espyrocracy and EU5 are my two most-anticipated GSGs!

[mysticmerlin]

Great video! I am really excited for upcoming grand strategy scene in 2025! Kaiserpunk is my number 1

[guyrose]

Slow moving…. Rich thoughtful and rewarding …. Metaphors abound 🐸🐌❤️💪❤️

[I_am_Locutus_of_Borg]

The thousands of hours I've put in Europa Universalis IV tell me that this video is for me 😁 Thanks, that was very interesting 👍

[alangunningham]

i am a little disappointed, the video is nice and as always well thought out and described, but normally the video is split into sections on the time bar showing the title you are watching, its probably your own fault for doing it so well in the past and now I expect it, I did enjoy it, but not quite so much as I was really expecting it to be up to your usual standards :), thanks for your hard work putting these video's out

[BlightJJ]

Yes! Grand Strategy! Good video. Guilded Destiny looks amazing. Few others are on the wishlist now too.

[saladinbob]

Hmm, Beyond Astra looks like a cross between Stellaris and Spore, visually I mean.

[AttitudeAdjusterAA]

Gilded Destiny needs to check out a real map when naming countries, Estonia and Latvia are flipped

[henrywarmoth]

Every other genre for LT gaming: "Eh, we kinda stretch the rules as to what a 'Space Sim means here at LT gaming.'"
Grand Strategy: GRAND STRATEGY AND 4X ARE NOT THE SAME. ANYONE WHO SAYS OTHERWISE IS A LIAR AND A CHEAT." 😂
