Game now set for release next year.

Matrix Games and 2 by 3 Games have decided to change the planned release date for Gary Grigsby’s World At War from November, 2004 to February, 2005.

David Heath, Director of Operations at Matrix Games, said, "We’re glad to finally lift the fog of war a bit and let gamers know when to expect this title, which we believe will redefine for players what a grand strategy game should be. We regret having to delay the release date from the original schedule, but the remaining time between now and February will really allow 2 by 3 Games to hone the gameplay and add the final touches that strategy gamers demand.”

With Gary Grigsby’s World at War, the historical course of World War II may change depending on your choices. If you succeed, the Western Allies may be conquered by Germany, or Japan may defeat China. With you at the controls, leading the fates of nations and alliances, anything is possible in this new strategic offering.

Lead your armies to victory by honing their abilities in research and development, creating a more powerful force than any other on the planet. Marshal your economic strength to out-produce your enemies. Build with foresight, however; the bigger and more expensive units take longer to build and are invested in over time rather than being an instant purchase. Players have to plan several game turns in advance, tailoring far-reaching strategies to fit the current strategic situation.

Take command in this dynamic turn-based game and test strategies that long-past generals and world leaders could only dream of: make it happen in Gary Grigsby’s World at War. The entire saga of World War II is yours to re-enact or to re-make in your own vision.
