STRATEGY IS BETTER TOGETHER: TINY METAL 2 OPENS
CO-OP PLAYTEST APRIL 2 ON STEAM
Up to 4 players can jump into the fray with large-scale land, air and sea battles with single-player and local co-op
TOKYO – March 25, 2026 – AREA 35 announced today that TINY METAL 2, the next entry in the hit tactical wargame series, is hosting a limited, month-long Playtest from April 2-29 on Steam – and you’re invited! This Playtest will be fans’ first chance to jump back into the TINY METAL franchise since 2019’s FULL METAL RUMBLE. Make your presence known on the battlefield with explosive, strategic action, and give feedback to help shape the balance, pacing and overall systems of TINY METAL 2. Spaces are limited so register now on Steam!
April's Playtest features single-player and local co-op multiplayer action, expanding the theater of war across dynamic battlefields where each decision can affect the battle’s outcome. Try all-new factions in combination with classic, returning factions, and lead mixed-unit loadouts into war, utilizing dynamic, new combat mechanics like Focus Fire, which lets multiple allied units combine attacks into one devastating, simultaneous assault.
Team up with friends in the Playtest to engage in large-scale battles for up to four players across maps designed for combat on land, in the air and, for the first time in the series, on the high seas. Unleash fleets of massive battleships, agile destroyers, stealthy submarines and more to turn the tide of war in high-powered naval battles. Millions of combinations are possible – What kind of military force will you create?
Find out for yourself at AREA 35’s PAX EAST booth (#Booth 15043) and play TINY METAL 2 for the first time in North America, alongside the charming character driven music-rhythm game Felicity’s Door for Apple Arcade. Also making its debut at PAX EAST is AREA 35’s exciting new multiplayer arcade game, codenamed PROJECT BLITZ.
TINY METAL 2 will release in spring 2027.
