Advance Wars 1+2 Re-Boot Camp preorder bonuses
Advance Wars 1+2 Re-Boot Camp does not include preorder bonuses at this time. This is common for Nintendo-published titles, but it’s always possible third-party retailers may throw in an extra or two. We'll make sure to update this article if any retailers announce preorder bonuses.
Advance Wars 1+2 Re-Boot Camp is, as the title implies, a remake of the first two Advance Wars games originally made for the Game Boy Advance: Advance Wars and Advance Wars 2: Black Hole Rising. The cult-classic turn-based strategy sees players commanding infantry and special “CO” hero units against enemy armies. Battles play out on land, air, and sea--but the tone is surprisingly cheerful and fun for a game seemingly about war, with a colorful art style and catchy tunes that belie the otherwise grim subject matter.
Development studio Wayforward is handling the remake, which features all the story content, gameplay mechanics, and versus modes of the 2D sprite-based original games remade with full 3D characters and environments.
