Autonomous Warfare Evolution

Autonomous Warfare Evolution is a real-time strategy simulation in which you evolve and deploy autonomous weapons that fight as intelligent swarms. Genetic algorithms shape their capabilities and behavior across generations, while you can influence their formations during combat.

Evolving the swarm

Each weapon’s vision, attack range, mobility and formation tactics are encoded in a genome. Genomes compete in up to 32 matches running in parallel, then undergo repeated selection and crossover to produce the next generation. You can watch different strategies emerge and evolve over time.

Biomes and combat

The game has nine biomes, each with its own environmental parameters. For each biome, you can configure evolution settings such as victory conditions and mutation rates. During battles, you can manually influence the formations of deployed genomes, though human intervention may become ineffective as AI evolution advances.

Campaigns

The Mission Console provides two story campaigns: Yamato SAZ Campaign and Tokyo Government Campaign. Each follows a sequence of operations with unlock conditions, and you can experiment with deploying different genomes within them. If you are defeated, you can incorporate the enemy’s genome into your own evolution and adapt. Multiple difficulty tiers, called Combat Protocol generations, add increasingly evolved AI opponents.

External AI control

Autonomous Warfare Evolution supports the Model Context Protocol (MCP), which lets external AI agents control the game. An AI can offer gameplay advice or play through the game directly.
