The Best RTS (Real-Time Strategy) Games On PC For 2026

The Total War: Warhammer series is a notable real-time strategy (RTS) game that combines grand strategy with tactical warfare, recognized as the premier modern Warhammer RTS. It features formidable creatures, diverse factions, and unconventional classes, offering unique tactical challenges. Despite a rocky launch for Total War: Warhammer 3, the series has regained its reputation, particularly with the Immortal Empires campaign, which is considered one of the largest Total War campaigns ever. Stronghold: Definitive Edition remains a classic strategy game after nearly twenty-five years, retaining its original essence while introducing a new campaign. It is priced attractively, appealing to fans of the original game. Company of Heroes is regarded as the quintessential RTS title, setting the standard for the genre with its focus on combat mechanics and the introduction of a cover system. Company of Heroes 3, while not fully meeting expectations, is still a competent entry in the series. Age of Empires IV is a newer RTS game that offers engaging campaigns and distinct faction identities, providing a varied gameplay experience. It is priced at twenty dollars during sales, making it a worthwhile investment for single-player enjoyment.

Cancelled Quake 4 expansion gets surprise GitHub release after former XCOM 2 developer discovers it on an old hard drive: ‘This essentially saved my life’

The original Quake has unveiled an official new episode as part of its 30th anniversary at QuakeCon. Additionally, a build of the previously cancelled expansion Quake 4: Awakening has been discovered on GitHub. This expansion was under development by Ritual Entertainment but was halted by Activision due to poor sales of the base game. A veteran game developer named Marshall found the expansion on a second-hand PC and shared it on GitHub, expressing that it had a significant emotional impact on him. The build includes configuration files with names of former Ritual employees, suggesting its authenticity. Gameplay footage shows new weapons and missions, indicating that the expansion was nearly complete before its cancellation. Marshall aims to preserve the project and hopes the community can help refine and eventually release it.
