Speaking of battles: mini turn-based combat will take part on the world map.

These large-scale battles will take place over multiple turns and spread your fame.

In the game, you’ll face historical events where you have to make impactful moral decisions that will not just shape your people’s future, but the whole world’s. You will have to make scientific breakthroughs, build remarkable creations, and battle for more land to progress through time and to make sure your culture makes it to the Modern Age of technology.

Every battle won gives you more fame, and the player with the most will win the game. As, let’s be honest, being popular is the goal for us all!

With an array of customization for your leader, you can make your avatar be yourself or you can progress a famous celebrity, historical leader, or movie character to be more famous than they are already!

King’s Bounty II – August 24th

Taking the acclaimed series in a different direction, King’s Bounty II will combine tactical play with an immersive RPG experience, where every decision has a moral impact and will change your alignment.

Set in the vast realms of Antara, the game allows you to choose between three characters (each with their own unique story) to explore the vast, open-world landscape. During this, you will traverse the realm from a third-person perspective and choose the quests you want to complete while you explore the beautiful wilderness.

But when you’re in a battle, you will be faced with tactical, turn-based combat where you must think about every move—as it could be your last! Win a battle and you will be able to develop your squad’s skills. Oh, by the way: your squad isn’t just limited to humans. You’ll be able to recruit unique units of elves, trolls, and other creatures.

DEATHLOOP – September 14th

Produced by the studio behind the awesome Dishonored series, DEATHLOOP takes inspiration from the studio’s previous games with slick, fast-paced gameplay.

In the game, your goal is to hunt down eight targets before the day resets. You will use your wits, skills, and the time loop to your advantage, as every time you die or run out of time you will be starting the day again. It’s not just fast-paced parkour where you go into every fight guns-blazing—you will also have to mix up your style with stealth elements to get through the levels.

You’ll have to stay on your toes, too, since you’re being hunted as well. When you play as Colt and try to stop the loop on the island, you will be hunted down by a rival assassin, Julianna, who can be controlled by the AI or by another player in a multiplayer mode.
