Introduction

It seems even an apocalypse of giant meteors pounding the surface of the planet and wiping out the vast majority of life on Earth can stop the ancient sport or war. Intelligent Systems' post-apocalyptic re-imagining of their nearly 20 year old series is no less preachy or oddly pacifistic for its new layer of grit, but it is, perhaps, the deepest game the series has seen.

With balanced, strategic gameplay, and, at times, a punishing difficulty curve, Days of Ruin can be a tough opponent for those new to the series. Even tougher are the die-hards you'll battle over your Wi-Fi connection. That's ok, though, IGN has your back.

• GENERAL STRATEGIES // We break down the basic tactics of Days of Ruin
