Empire of the Ants trailer announcing the strategy game from Tower Five and Microids
Strategy games abound, but very few put you in command of insects. For a release in 2024, publisher Microids has announced Empire of the Ants, based on the bestseller by Bernard Werber, which lets you command an entire ant colony. Penetrate the tiny realms of the little crawlers and experience a visual representation that is very close to realism. The latest trailer for The Ants shows in-game graphics based on Unreal Engine 5.
As the saviour of the ants, it is your task to lead your ant colony, rebuild your home, ensure safety and prosperity and conquer new territories as the seasons change. Exploring, developing strategies, defending the colony, fighting - enemy animals are and other dangers always provide new challenges.
To feed your nostalgia: The retro game from the 2000s, Empire of the Ants (2000), is currently on sale at Gamesplanet.
