Intended to be a throwback to the golden age of RTSes, the game has had a number of difficulties attracting its intended audience.

It plays similarly to older real time strategy games, though on larger scale battlefields than its contemporaries. The game follows the United Nations-backed Chimera task force as they ally with the USA and fight a mysterious enemy called the Cartel.

Intended to be a throwback to the golden age of RTSes, the game has had a number of difficulties attracting its intended audience. Critics have cited difficult unit control, a poor single player campaign, high price point, and lack of tutorial to make it a difficult game to understand. It has often been compared to Command & Conquer: Generals.

Unlike Wargame: Red Dragon, Act of Aggression has been stated to not support naval units.
