All Army Attack Steam: Game Overview
All Army Attack is an Action Roguelike Auto-Battler from developer Blacklight Games and publisher Devolver Digital, announced on November 10, 2026. The central hook is absurd scale: you recruit animals and plants into one enormous army that literally overflows off the screen, then hurl it at cosmic threats. Between battles, you upgrade your base and can even gamble your entire army for bigger rewards.
The Steam store page lists the game under Action, Casual, and Strategy tags as a single-player experience, with the full release planned for 2027.

Beginner Tips & Base Upgrade Priorities
These practical tips cover the systems that decide whether your runs snowball or stall.
| Priority | Upgrade Type | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Unit production speed | Faster spawns compound into a bigger army for free |
| 2 | Unit attack power | Converts sheer numbers into actual damage |
| 3 | Health / defense | Matters only once you survive long enough |
| 4 | Cosmetic / convenience | Fun but won't win runs — take last |
- Manage off-screen units: use rally points and the minimap to steer units you can't see; re-center on your blob before engaging.
- Widen formations to reduce pile-ups at chokepoints so more units actually attack.
- Go all-in at the right time: after wiping an enemy wave, when their production is down, or right after an attack upgrade.
- Never all-in into well-defended chokepoints or while enemy reinforcements stream in.
- Keep momentum: after a win, push the nearest enemy structure while your army is at peak size.
As an Action/Casual/Strategy hybrid, the game is designed so losing an army is not run-ending. Rebuilding is fast — use casual runs to learn enemy layouts before trying greedier strategies.
Demo Run Goals:
- Build an army large enough to overflow the screen
- Complete one successful all-in army push
- Prioritize production speed upgrades in a full run
- Win a fight immediately after upgrading attack power
- Wishlist the game on Steam for launch news
