Wall World Strategy launched today, November 11, on Steam for Windows and macOS, going live at 12:00 PM UTC as Alawar announced. On November 10 we walked through its requirements, and the good news still holds: this is a light game. What is new today is what the full release adds over the demo, the launch price and a set of bundles that can save you money if you already own other colony games. Right now there are 664 concurrent players on Steam.
What the full release brings
According to the launch announcement, the full game expands a lot on what the demo offered:
- New scenarios across diverse biomes.
- New challenges and dynamic events.
- An expanded research tree with brand-new structures.
- Multiple difficulty settings.
- A Sandbox Mode for experimenting with different colony setups.
The base price is $19.99, with Steam regional pricing applied. The studio announced a launch discount for the next two weeks, and right now the store lists it at $16.99, 15% off. Alawar also teamed up with The Riftbreaker, Laysara: Summit Kingdom and Stario: Haven Tower for Complete the Set bundles: if you already own one of those, the matching bundle gets you Wall World Strategy at an even better price.
Wall World Strategy PC requirements
The Steam page lists only a minimum, with no recommended tier:
| Minimum | Recommended | |
|---|---|---|
| GPU | GeForce GTX 960 or Radeon RX 550 | Not listed |
| CPU | Core i5-6402P or Ryzen 5 1600 | Not listed |
| RAM | 8 GB | Not listed |
| Storage | 6 GB | Not listed |
| OS | Windows 10 64-bit | Not listed |
The additional notes ask for one thing that has nothing to do with your PC: stay hydrated.
On Mac it asks for macOS Big Sur 11.7.10 or newer, an Apple M1, 8 GB of RAM and 6 GB of space, with the minimum based on 1080p. If you play on a Mac, see what else runs on macOS. There is no Linux version.
Which GPUs run it
Every GPU on our list clears the minimum, down to the most modest ones. The GTX 1650, the GTX 1060 6GB and the Radeon RX 580 grade A (Smooth) on canirun, and from the GTX 1660 Super up, including the RTX 3060, the grade is S (Overkill). Since Steam lists no recommended tier, there is no official higher bar to measure against: what is clear is that you do not need a modern card.
On Steam Deck, Valve has not verified it yet. Going by the specs, our spec-based estimate is a C, but that is only an estimate until Valve rates it. You can follow it on the game’s Steam Deck page.
Can your PC run Wall World Strategy?
Here is how it compares with Hearts of Iron IV, another strategy game that asks little of your hardware:
| Game | Rec. GPU score | Rec. RAM | Min. RAM | Your PC |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wall World Strategy | — | — | 8 GB | ? |
 Hearts of Iron IV | 1,700 | 6 GB | 4 GB | ? |
