About Warzone 2100

✦ AI summary

Lead a faction rebuilding civilization after nuclear apocalypse by researching over 400 technologies and designing custom vehicles to dominate in real-time strategy combat. Warzone 2100 sets itself apart with its deep focus on artillery tactics, radar warfare, and a robust vehicle customization system that rewards strategic innovation.

In the late 21st century, the world's civilizations are wiped out by a series of nuclear strikes, seemingly caused by a massive malfunction of the new NASDA (North American Strategic Defense Agency) strategic defense system.
While most of the survivors form scavenger bands to survive, you are a member of a group named "The Project", that is more organised and seeks to rebuild civilization using pre-war technology.

Compared to other real-time strategy games, Warzone 2100 has a greater focus on artillery, radar, and counter-battery technologies, more frequent in-game cinematic updates as game play progresses, a massive research tree, as well as a vehicle design system.

Features
* Fully open source
* Single player campaign with full FMV support
* Single player skirmish modes
* An extensive tech tree with over 400 different technologies
* A vehicle design system

Notes:
To play multiplayer online port 2100 needs to be fowarded.
Please refer to your local router setting on how to do this.

What Steam players say

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.

✦ AI summary

Warzone 2100 is a beloved classic RTS that players appreciate for its engaging unit customization system, tactical gameplay, and ongoing community updates that have improved the experience over time. However, some players express frustration with the Wine detection that prevents running the Steam version through Proton on Linux, forcing them to manually seek out and install the separate Linux version. As a free-to-play game, players generally feel it delivers solid value and is worth trying, particularly for those who enjoy strategy gameplay.

Not recommended Sep 7, 2026

I can run modern games like Hogwarts Legacy, Palworld, and Bannerlord flawlessly in Proton on Linux. But when trying to launch this 28 year old game the devs hardcoded a WINE detection into it that will force terminate the game and redirect you to a download page. I don't want to download the Linux version. The whole reason I use Steam is so I can click a button and have the game installed for me. I don't want to ♥♥♥♥ around in terminal. You can code a WINE detection and remove my ability to install and play the game the way I want to, and host multiple versions of your game on your website, but not make the linux version available on Steam like so many other Steam games do? Thumbs down. I'll change my review when you remove the WINE detection or put the linux version up on Steam.

Better than some RTS games that I had to actually pay money for. Unlocking parts and building your weapons is a really cool idea.
