BWii: Battalion Wars 2
About the Game
This sequel to Battalion Wars plays much like its predecessor, blending real-time strategy with third-person shooting. The game's plot traces decades of war among six factions (Solar Empire, Western Frontier, Anglo Isles, Iron Legion, Tundran Territories, Xylvania), and unfolds through contemporary missions that advance the conflict and flashback missions that reveal its history. Players control a soldier or a land, sea, or air vehicle to engage in combat directly and to command other units.
Gameplay & Core Systems
The Wii Nunchuk's thumbstick controls player movement, and evasive maneuvers are handled through gestures. In the single-player campaign mode, players assume control of the various factions at different points in the conflict's history. Another notable element is three online multiplayer modes. Skirmish mode is a timed two-player match to score more points than the other player by destroying opposing units. Assault mode is a timed two-player match in which one player attempts to destroy the other player's resources and fortifications while the other defends.
Standout Features
- Co-Op mode is an untimed two-player match in which both players work together to complete special online missions that are not part of the single-player campaign.
Modes & Ways to Play
Offline local multiplayer is not supported.
Player support includes Co-Op, Free-for-all / One-on-one (VS), and Team.
Presentation & Atmosphere
Display support includes Progressive Scan (480p) and Widescreen (16 x 9). Audio support includes Dolby Pro Logic II.
