Future Warfare Awaits in People's General
People's General thrusts players into a near-future conflict, bridging the gap from tradition to modernity in the turn-based strategy genre. Set against a backdrop of overpopulation and resource scarcity, the game presents a scenario where China seeks to dominate Asia, facing off against the formidable NATO. The choices you make can decisively alter the course of history in this politically charged setting.
Choose Your Side in the Global Conflict
Players have the option to command either the expanding Chinese forces or NATO defenders in a branching campaign that emphasizes strategic decision-making. Each choice not only impacts the immediate battlefield but also shapes the overarching narrative of the war. The engaging campaigns make use of well-balanced scenarios, ensuring that each playthrough offers new challenges and outcomes.
Craft Your Own Military Scenarios

Engage in Diverse Tactical Battles
Combat scenarios are enriched through varied terrain and dynamic weather conditions, compelling players to adapt their strategies on the fly.
