My top 5 upcoming RTS games

Hi fellas! As an RTS enthusiast, I'm looking for new awesome RTSs to play. Have been playin some alphas and demos, as well as following devs, and here are my top 5 interesting upcoming games. Really looking forward to these!

And yes... I know that SC Remastered is not on the list although it will be released this summer. But we all know that it'll be the same game as the one that came decades ago. In this post I want to highlight and discuss NEW upcoming RTSs. Please comment your thoughts! :)

1. The only really big RTS title that will be released in the foreseeable future. Will it live up to our expectations? There's a new focus on scale and super-sized units, but retaining the clashing armies of the first game and the heroes of the second. Have been getting a beta key, and will test it this weekend... Excited!

2. Bannermen is a tremendously interesting game, containing dynamic environments in a medieval semi-fantasy world. The game have been described as a cross between AoEII and WC3, which makes me all wet! It sure looks like AoEII with heavily upgraded visuals, and the the game is supposed to be less apm demanding than for example SC2, yet maintaining the importance of micro in battles.
Release date: Q2, 2018

3. Gates of Hell is a historical/realism action-based RTS based on the powerful GEM2 game engine by Best Way. The game takes place during WW2 with a very large amount of different unit types and vehicles. Got the opportunity to play an alpha version and was impressed by the size of the game. Yet, the visuals wasn't the best and the gameplay not super interesting. But hey, only in alpha, so it could still be a great game in the end!

4. Subsiege is an RTS taking place under water. The developers at Icebird Studios tried to get the game crowdfunded, but the campaign failed. Yet, they didn't give up, and the game is currently available in early access on Steam. I have played the game several hours, and must say that it's a pretty cool game with nice visuals. But a major flaw in the gameplay is the oxygen gimmick - you always gotta have an oxygen supply, otherwise you get killed. This "feature" reduced the gameplay depth and simply put made the game more boring.
Release date: To be announced (currently in EA)

5. The WW2 theme has been proven to be successful in the RTS genre. Almost 10 years ago Sudden Strike 3 was released, and a lot of gamers are eager to play the fourth game in the series. The gameplay in SS4 is a bit slower with larger strategic depth. I've played a demo, and it seems to be a very decent RTS, although with influences from grand strategy games. The game is soon to be released and I will definately give it a try!
Release date: Spring, 2017
