At the 2025 Action Briefing event, Renegade Games announced updated titles to historical tabletop game line Axis & Allies. The franchise, which puts players in the roles of major military powers during the first and second World Wars, has four major releases coming out this year: a new theater of war, the return of an old classic, a deluxe battlemap, and a fantasy game in their Powered by Axis & Allies line.
The biggest announcement of Action Briefing is far and away \the introduction of Axis & Allies Stalingrad, a new game designed by Matt Hyra and Larry Harris that brings one of the deadliest battles of World War II to the table. After Renegade acquired the Axis & Allies license in 2022, the games studio surveyed its audience, asking which historical battlegrounds they'd like to see made. According to a Renegade spokesperson, the Soviet city ranked second on the list -- just behind A&A: North Africa, which went on sale in 2024.
