Big military shooters can feel alike, but they play differently. WARDOGS is a 100-player, three-team shooter in Steam Early Access. Its developers say it was inspired by an Arma 3 mod called King of the Hill. This guide compares it in general terms. We only list WARDOGS facts we checked; for other games, check their store pages.
Key takeaways
- WARDOGS is built around one moving zone and constant fights.
- You buy gear each life with cash, instead of picking a fixed class.
- Arma 3 is a large sandbox with many community modes.
- Squad is known for slower, team-first play.
What makes WARDOGS different
Three teams fight for one Control Zone, so enemies come from two sides. Cash from teamwork buys weapons, gear and vehicles. The game has destruction, base building and proximity voice chat. It uses a server browser instead of skill-based matchmaking, and there is no battle pass.
