The 20 Best Strategy Games To Wishlist For 2026 and 2027

Systemic War is an ambitious RTS and grand strategy game where you lead a nation from 2008 to 2025. It feels reminiscent of Imperial Glory, blending turn-based strategy with real-time battles on a world map. However, instead of a vast, open world, Systemic War will feature 25 detailed, handcrafted maps. What’s really interesting is the game’s approach to the strategic map – it uses actual rail and road networks instead of traditional regions, which is a unique idea. While it’s hard to say exactly how this will play out, it’s great to see the developers trying something new. Systemic War is currently slated for release in the fourth quarter of 2026.
