Good Mood Games based out of Turkey have had their strategy game Eyes of War in early access since June 2023 and are excited to announce it will be getting its full 1.0 release on the 31st of January 2025.

Back in May I got my hands dirty on the battle fields of Eyes of War and thoroughly enjoyed myself. Check out my review here.

Eyes of War is a real time strategy game with the excitement of being able to take control of any unit in your army from the 3rd person perspective and experiencing the battle from the front lines.
You can switch between Strategy mode which allows you to expand your castle and develop your armies and Character mode at any point during the game. Character mode allows you to explore every area of the map from horseback, defend your castle as an archer from the walls or even charge the enemy lines on the back of an elephant, the choice is yours.

Currently there are 4 Nations available, each with extremely different cultures, units and tactics. I really enjoyed The Norvion. They are almost barbarians with lots of hand-to-hand units. Unfortunately, the downside being they only one archer unit. This meant if I was up against Calvary, I was toast.
Eyes of War also has an Arena Mode where you pit your strength against other players in the Colosseum. Pick a unit and fight against AI or other players to become the champion of the Arena.

Eyes of War is currently available in Early Access on Steam with the full version becoming available on the 31st of January 2025.
