Shadow Tacticswas one of the most pleasant surprises of the past five years, establishing Mimimi as ones to watch beforeDesperados 3established them as masters of tactical sneak ‘em ups. Now the German developer is returning to their samurai roots with the standalone expansion Aiko’s Choice. Announcedback in March, it now has a release window: December.

The love for the original Shadow Tactics was pretty universal at RPS, withour Shadow Tactics reviewcalling it “a fabulous game – a game I think I prefer to bothCommandos 2and Desperados.” That’s high praise given Commandos 2 and Desperados were previously the champions of the entire genre.
Developers Mimimi Games have already announced that they’re now working ona third real-time tactics game in a brand new IPset in “a whole new world, with a new setting, story and characters.” It has no name or specific details attached yet, but Mimimi own it outright, unlike Shadow Tactics and Desperados.
I can’t wait to learn more, just like I can’t wait to play Aiko’s Choice this December.
