Veterans: Napoleonic Wars changes
Veterans: Napoleonic Wars is part of Steam Next Fest, June 2026 edition. A free demo will be available on the store page from June 15 at 10:00 AM PDT through June 22 at 10:00 AM PDT.
Brandish your bayonet and step into the boots of a frontline general. No base building, no idle time. Just thousands of soldiers, tens of battalions on screen at once, and the smell of gunpowder in the air.
What's in the Next Fest demo
Real-time combat focused entirely on battlefield tactics, inspired by the first Italian Napoleonic campaigns
Historically accurate line, column, and square formations
Unit morale, fatigue, and line of sight that directly shape every engagement
Dynamic weather, drifting smoke, and fog of war that alter visibility round by round
Cavalry breakthroughs, flanking maneuvers, and desperate melee charges when the ammo runs dry
How to take part
Visit the Veterans: Napoleonic Wars Steam page between June 15 and June 22
