The Game

Every pig thinks for itself

PigWars is an autonomous auto-battler. There are no controls during a fight — your job is to build the kind of pig that survives, then live with what it decides.

01 · Build

Build your fighter

Spend points across eight stats — Strength, Health, Intelligence, Agility, Vision, Aura, Will and Empathy — and unlock skills that change how your pig behaves.

The mix decides who it becomes. Strong and tough makes The Brawler. Others are stranger: The Glass Cannon, The Vampire, The Obese Juggernaut.

02 · Fight

Watch it fight

Once the battle starts, it's out of your hands. Pigs pick their own targets and:

  • heal their friends, raise shields and revive the fallen
  • throw grenades, cast spells and teleport out of trouble
  • charm their enemies into switching sides
  • forage for food when they're hurt — or run when they're cowards
  • unleash a fatal fart, as a last resort

Terrain matters: high ground helps, and fog of war hides whatever your pig hasn't seen yet.

03 · Teamwork

Pigs that work as a team

Teammates talk to each other. They call for help when they're cornered, spot enemies for the rest of the team, focus fire on the weakest target and regroup when the fight turns against them.

Nobody tells them to. It just happens.

When it dies, it stays dead

If your pig falls and nobody on its team brings it back before the battle ends, it's gone for good. Fallen pigs take their place in the Ancestry — the hall of pigs who didn't make it — carrying the epithet they earned.

Keep up to three pigs in your stable, level them up, and look back through your battle history.

Battlefields

Six places to die gloriously

Fight in small 3v3 skirmishes or all-out 30v30 wars, as a team or every pig for itself.

The Barn

A dusty farmyard at dusk, where the loft smells of hay and danger.

The Butcher's Block

Flickering lights, tiled walls and hooks that swing on their own.

The Colosseum

A roaring crowd and sand that has seen a thousand last stands.

The Kitchen

Hissing burners and something cooking that no pig should identify.

The Ruins

Crumbling stone and river mist.

The Space Station

Failing life support and airlocks with opinions.

Fair by design

Battles run on the server

Fights are simulated on our server, not on your device, so results can't be edited by the client. That's why online play needs an account — and why your roster and ancestry follow you between devices.
