    And War 10. We’re skipping War 9 because the number nine sounds too much like “death” in some languages and the marketing team likes big round numbers.

      I thought it was because “War 9” is too similar to “Win 9” or Windows 9x. This could cause software compatibility issues so its best to just skip straight from 8 to 10.

      Right now we’re releasing War 10, and because War 10 is the last version of War. It’s all about War as a service.

        Okay, just for shits 'n giggles we’ll throw in a War 11. Just mind that it can’t be fought with perfectly good legacy weapons, those will need to be replaced.
