Features steep and foreboding looking mountains, lush, rolling hills and deep blue rivers that just make you want to grab a rod and fish for trout, the new map looks gorgeous. Refreshing and unexpected, the prologue serves to get you acquainted with the game, its changes as compared to the previous versions and to show you a glimpse of the underlying storyline.Īfter an introductory – and for the series iconic – ‘text adventure’, you will find yourself looking at King Arthur’s new campaign map, probably with your jaw flat on the floor. Instead, you play a betrayed Septus, brought back from the dead and out to restore his family lands and to take control over New Rome, the Roman occupied territories in Britain.

With a storyline that describes King Arthur’s illness with his realm in ruin, you would expect to dive in head-first playing one of his knights and being tasked to find a cure and put the realm back together. That in itself is not too surprising, but the fact that you are playing as a Roman commander is. King Arthur II’s campaign starts with a prologue. Neocore’s second surprise hit me the moment I started up the game. Fortunately, word of mouth and fantastic support from publisher Paradox have pulled the game from the unknown and into the light and King Arthur II is set to conquer all the lands, swiftly and decisively.

King Arthur: The Role-Playing Wargame is one of those games that if you have played it, you will probably have stumbled upon it accidentally. It was the first of several surprises that they had in store, some of which I’ll gladly spoil, others you will have to wait for the review for, but they are all good. With only short while to go before its release, Neocore filled my stocking with a steam code to download a preview copy of King Arthur II.
