What are the best strategy games on PC? Some would say StarCraft II, others Civilization VI while yet more still would say "actually, Civ 4 was the better civ ga-" but at that point we'd stop listening because who cares. Join us as we explore a curated collection of the genre’s greatest hits, from newcomers to classics.
Fun fact: the strategy genre was first invented back in 1938, when Winston Churchill looked out an aeroplane window over France and thought, "Hey, this would make a really cool videogame, whatever that is." Probably. Since then, there have been about a hundred million different strategy games, simulating as many different kinds of fighting as we humans have had reasons to fight one another.
Turn-based or real-time, grand strategy or tactical… this genre is as diverse as they come. But which are the absolute top strategy games on PC? Well, just drag a selection box over our bodies and right-click on the horizon, and we'll find out. We have a strategy editor on our team now, so we can't be wrong.
