This classic, forgotten console RTS is getting a full Steam remaster
A game of Team Buddies with various units on the field.

Team Buddies, a PlayStation-only real-time strategy game from 25 years ago, just received a Steam listing for a full remaster. It looks like this cult classic has returned from the grave with online multiplayer, updated graphics, and all the chaotic fun you remember.
