Hosted by both Sean “Day[9]” Plott and Frankie Ward, Stormgate along with 54 other titles is to be featured in the summer showcase. Among other titles mentioned in announcements were Baldur’s Gate 3, Frostpunk 2, and Dune: Awakening. There’s also a segment for the first looks of 20 brand-new titles from studios around the world.
Stormgate first debuted in June 2022 during the Summer Game Fest 2022 where they showed some pre-alpha gameplay footage and an opening cinematic that laid out the gist of the game. The game is set amidst a war between technologically advanced humanity and a horde of demonic-looking alien invaders.
Very excited to show off the first ever 3D model of the Vulcan, a powerful mech unit equipped with a gatling gun in the new RTS #StormGate , published by #FrostGiantStudios , run by the people formerly behind Warcraft 3 and Starcraft 2. I can’t wait to get my hands on this game.… pic.twitter.com/A8LTG1ywds

Though still in development, Frost Giant Studios have released several in-game content including concept art, in-game models, and other life updates on their official Twitter @PlayStormGate. The game is still in alpha with closed testing beginning in July.
Marketed as the free-to-play RTS, the new title is primed to bring some needed life back into the real-time strategy genre. With developers in the team coming from previous legendary RTS titles like Starcraft 2 and Warcraft 3, a lot of positive expectations are set for Stormgate.
Most in the RTS community also have expressed positive regards for Stormgate with content creators such as WinterStarcraft and Lowko stating their support for the upcoming title. The game has also reached the Top 100 Wishlist on Steam.
