After a decade off Steam, Eugen Systems' WW2 RTS Ruse is back, complete with all original DLC, technical updates, and full Steam Deck support. Despite its 2010 roots and a $30 price tag that's drawn some criticism, the game's re-release has been met with overwhelmingly positive user reviews. Ruse's return is a welcome surprise for strategy fans, offering a very good, albeit unremastered, RTS experience.
After an 11-year absence, R.U.S.E., the World War 2 real-time strategy gem, returns to Steam with a Definitive Edition, featuring Steam Deck support and all DLC. This surprise move by developer Eugen Systems, who reacquired rights from Ubisoft, delights fans who previously faced outcry when servers were turned off in 2023. The game's unique "Ruse" cards and tactical depth are once again available, with existing owners receiving the update for free via a 2.4GB patch.
