Battle Nations is a freemium turn-based strategy multiplayer video game originally developed and published by Z2Live, and now currently under development by Madrona Games. The game was officially shut down by Z2Live on September 28, 2016, along with many of their other titles. This event followed the acquisition of Z2Live by King in 2015.
In the years following the closure of Battle Nations, work began on a fan-made remake. A sandbox version of the game with limited scope was then re-released and funded by community creators on BattleNations.net in 2018. As of September 4, 2023, the community development team (now officially named Madrona Games) successfully reached a licensing agreement with King, ending their legal dispute and allowing development to continue. The game is now scheduled for a re-release in mid-2024.[1]
