Revealed during Slitherine Next, Steel Balalaika, the development studio behind Broken Arrow, unveiled exciting gameplay updates to the Broken Arrow community, as well as a June 2025 launch window confirmation.
The success of Broken Arrow, Slitherine’s majestic and immense RTS set in a fictional USA-Russia conflict, continues to go from strength to strength despite still being in development. With nearly half a million players already registered who passionately participated in the multiplayer open beta last month, 340,000 hours watched on Twitch, and over 7,000 hours streamed, Broken Arrow is sure to make waves within the RTS genre.
Developer Steel Balalaika confirms that it is hard at work on a story-driven single-player campaign set in the Baltic region, featuring a fictional clash between the USA and Russian armies. The first scenario of the single-player story campaign was also showcased for the very first time exclusively during this reveal.
The developers also revealed that a scenario editor will be available pre-launch as part of the upcoming open beta, allowing players to create their own bespoke scenarios even before the game is fully released, ultimately giving players full freedom in this RTS dream.
Post-launch will also see the arrival of new army types, additional theaters of war, and additional factions set to be introduced, further fueling the already high anticipation. Fans of Broken Arrow, both new and existing, can now mark their calendars and prepare for a groundbreaking strategy experience like no other.
