Gaming industry has surprised us with many new and exciting games this year (in 2019). We can recall some notable releases like new edition of Nintendo’s Mario game series (Mario Kart Tour) or the games with old legacy like Call of Duty being transferred on Mobile Devices , the gaming world gave us unforgettable memories in 2019. In this article however, we will take a glance on what we are expecting in 2020, we will review 10 best android strategy games to watch in 2020.
1.Stellaris: Galaxy Command
Release Date: 2020
Platforms: iOS / Android
For the lovers of Sci-Fi this game will be a huge gift. The authors promise a huge universe that users can directly influence. So, the map will change depending on how the players unite, trade and fight. You have to manage your own orbiting space stations. The beta version testing is taking place at the moment.
2. Last Kings
Release Date: 2020
Platforms: iOS / Android
Another breathtaking strategy game which will be cross-platform based. Last Kings is an MMO strategy completely different from Astellia and is developed for PC and mobile devices powered by Unreal Engine 4 by NX Games inc. under the wing of publisher Barunson E&A. It’s worth noting that the project seems to have borrowed a lot from such popular mobile games as Clash of Clans and Mobile Royale. But it has its own, unique features. For example, players must choose a faction, and then develop their own kingdom, led by a hero in one of two directions: peaceful or military.
Players will have to collect units of 5 heroes and participate in turn-based battles. The game also expects elements of a traditional real-time strategy. Users can also visit dungeons with the goal of pumping characters in groups of up to five people, fight in turn-based and RTS modes (I wonder how this will be implemented), recruit various types of troops, join guilds and watch cinematic story clips moving forward on quests. It is not yet clear how these things can be combined. The main problem of Last Kings may be the article an abundance of automation. If the game plays on its own, then no genre diversity will save it.

Platforms: iOS / Android

5.League of Legends: Wild Rift
Release Date: 2020
Platforms: iOS / Android
The mobile version of League of Legends Mobile will surely attract new players from Asia, which will allow Riot Games to improve its position. Matches in this version will last 15-20 minutes. Most of the gameplay features will continue, but new elements will appear. Also, a completely new map will be created for the game. At the start of the Wild Rift will be represented by 40 heroes, but over time, the developers promise to add new ones.
