Slitherine hits 25 years of strategy gaming with live shows, steep discounts, free games, and a new title reveal. The celebration starts with a live event Wednesday, July 9th on Twitch.

The Foundation

JD and Iain McNeil founded Slitherine in 2000 to serve strategy and wargaming enthusiasts. Legion in 2002 put them on the map. The 2012 Matrix Games merger solidified their position as the premier publisher for serious wargamers.

Their catalogue spans major licenses and consistent hits: Warhammer 40,000: Armageddon, Battlestar Galactica: Deadlock, Gladius, Battlesector, Starship Troopers: Terran Command, and Terminator: Dark Fate – Defiance. The company now operates globally with over 100 team members across London, Milan, and Warsaw.

The Sale

Steam Publisher Sale runs July 10-17 with discounts up to 80% across their entire catalogue. Three games go free permanently: Battlestar Galactica: Deadlock, Fantasy General II, and Field of Glory II: Medieval. Panzer Corps 2 gets a special one-day deal on July 11th for Panzer Corps Day.

Creator Week

July 10-16 features daily content from streamers and YouTubers covering Slitherine's history, retrospectives, and giveaways with free Steam codes.

What's Coming

The Slitherine Next 2025 event streams live July 9th, revealing the next six months of releases. Expect updates on Distant Worlds 2, Panzer Corps 2, Scramble: Battle of Britain, RuneQuest: Warlords, and Stormbinders. One completely new game gets revealed during the stream.

Twenty-five years of consistent strategy gaming output deserves recognition. Slitherine carved out their niche and stayed there, serving a demanding audience that other publishers often ignore. The celebration reflects a company that knows its audience and delivers what they want.
