Download RISK: Global Domination – The Classic Strategy Board Game!

Step into a world where every decision can change the fate of nations. RISK: Global Domination is the official digital version of the classic Hasbro board game that has captivated millions of players for generations. Reimagined for the modern age, a true test of wartime strategy, negotiation, and domination.

Engage in Multiplayer Turn-Based War Games

Join an ever-growing global community of potential allies and enemies. Deploy your army, forge alliances, and fight in nail-biting, turn-based showdowns where the bold and the cunning rule. Every match is a tactical puzzle where only the strongest strategy will prevail. Challenge real players in online matches across over 120 unique maps, each offering its own wartime scenario - from ancient empires to reliving the greatest historical battles, multiple fantasy scenarios, modern skirmishes & interstellar conflict and galactic wars.

Key Features:

Build and Command Your Army

Draft reinforcements, place your troops and execute your plan of attack. Each turn is a strategic crossroads - will you defend, expand or hold the line? Your ability to manage your army and outmaneuver your opponents is what defines a true RISK tactician.

Strategic Diplomacy & Wartime Alliances

In the world of RISK, a well-timed diplomatic offer can be as powerful as a cannon shot. Use clever diplomacy to build alliances, deceive your rivals, and turn temporary friends into stepping stones toward victory. Remember: in this wartime strategy game, trust is fragile, and betrayal is often the final move before triumph.

Explore Over 120 Classic and Original Themed Maps

Battle across an expansive selection of maps, from real-world terrains like Europe and Asia to ancient battlefields and outer space. Each battlefield introduces new pathways to victory that challenge you to employ different strategies, keeping every online match fresh and unpredictable. The classic map is 42 territories. Our custom maps range in size from ~20 territories for quick wars to advanced maps with 90+ territories for more drawn out battles.

Experience the Turn-Based Combat of the Original Classic Board Game

Enjoy the suspense and intensity of the traditional turn-based combat of the classic Hasbro board game. Your tactics must adapt each round as enemies close in, defenses falter, or opportunities arise. Each battle becomes a thrilling test of your long-term planning and decision-making skills.
