The first name in hardcore digital wargaming is back with Gary Grigsby\u2019s<\/i> War in the East 2<\/i>. <\/i>I managed to get my hands on an early copy, so let\u2019s dive in!<\/p>\n
I\u2019ve only spent a few hours with the sequel to the legendary strategy game that set the bar for historical accuracy and detail, but I can already tell you: our patience has been rewarded.<\/span><\/p>\n Gary Grigsby\u2019s War in the East 2<\/i> (we\u2019ll just call it <\/span>East 2<\/i> going forward) comes more than a decade after the launch of the original. That might seem like an inflated development period, but we\u2019re talking about one of the most in-depth strategy games ever made. <\/span><\/p>\n East 1<\/i> has an almost storied appeal with war gamers. It\u2019s typically considered the penultimate \u201chard to learn, harder to master, and hardest to stop playing once you get into it\u201d kind of game. <\/span><\/p>\n
