About

Grand Strategy, released in 2019, is a massively multiplayer online game that draws inspiration from the classic board game RISK. Players can engage casually or dive into a more immersive campaign mode where two factions compete for dominance on a vast overland map. The strategic gameplay revolves around accruing victory points, and its blend of strategy with multiplayer elements sets it apart in the gaming landscape.

When it comes to performance, Grand Strategy is designed to be accessible, requiring only an entry-level GPU with a minimum score of around 475 to deliver satisfactory FPS. With just 2 GB of RAM needed, players can run the game smoothly on basic hardware. For those looking to enjoy higher graphics settings, investing in a mid-range GPU will enhance the overall experience, ensuring a more visually appealing and responsive gameplay.

If you're a fan of strategy games and enjoy engaging in tactical warfare with friends or online opponents, Grand Strategy offers a compelling and entertaining experience. With its positive reception and blend of casual and competitive elements, it's definitely worth a try for both newcomers and veterans of the genre.

Performance profile

January 2019 release. Grand Strategy was built around the GTX 10-series / RX Vega era. Current-gen mid-range cards (RTX 4060 / RX 7600) are overkill at 1080p and handle 1440p Ultra comfortably.

As a strategy title, Grand Strategy is typically CPU-bound rather than GPU-bound — single-thread CPU performance dictates framerate during large-scale battles, end-game saves and late-game AI turns. A fast modern 6-core will help more than a GPU upgrade.

Extremely light — Grand Strategy runs at 60 FPS 1080p on any integrated GPU (Intel Iris Xe, AMD Radeon Graphics) or a decade-old discrete card like the GTX 1050. A current-gen RTX 4060 pushes 4K Ultra without effort.

Storyline

In Campaign mode, two factions will fight for victory in one grand war, on one large overworld map. When you join a campaign, you choose a faction. The factions control territories on the overworld map. By competing in separate games (or battles), factions gain and lose territories. Territories confer victory points, and the faction to gain the most victory points will emerge victorious.
