Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp Announced For The Nintendo Switch

During the E3 2021 Nintendo Direct, Nintendo revealed Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp for the Nintendo Switch, a remake of the Gameboy Advance strategy game Advance Wars. It’s set to launch on December 3 as preorders are now up on the eShop.

This new version of the game is a remake built from the ground up, modernizing the first two games , delivering the same campaigns but giving it a new 3D look and feel. Gameplay seems to be intact as it looks to play just like the original game that was released back in 2001 on the Game Boy Advance.

Here are some more details provided by Nintendo:

Fight Alongside Capable Commanding Officers

Defend your land with the help of Andy, Max, Sami, and other Commanding Officers, each with their own specialties and CO Powers. Andy can repair units, while Sami can boost the abilities of troops. Your opponents can use CO abilities of their own too! Throughout both campaigns, the COs you meet play a critical role both on the battlefield and in the story.

Recruit Some Friends and See Who the Superior Strategist Is

When you aren’t busy keeping the peace in one of the two campaign stories, flex your army-commanding chops in Versus Mode**. Up to four players can battle on dozens of maps. Each player chooses a CO from either campaign and can strategically use their CO Powers to turn the tides of battle. Customize your combat with options like funds per allied base and fog of war.
