But most importantly, real-time battles were demonstrated for the first time, which can compete Total War series.
Turn-Based RPG/Tactics Jagged Alliance 3
The video tells about the daughter of the newly elected president, who was kidnapped immediately after the election. Now she will hire a team of brutal mercenaries who will teach villains a lesson in classic turn-based battles with an abundance of blood. In general, Jagged Alliance 3 looks like a classic and solid TBT with RPG elements in the form of recruitment and character customization and a kind of global map shown at the end of the trailer.
Medieval RTS The Valiant
Средневековая RTS, которая расскажет о двух братьях, путешествующих по всей Европе в попытках найти части мощного артефакта – Ааронова жезла. Игра будет включать кампанию, кооперативный режим и соревновательный мультиплеер, предлагая бои вида отряд на отряд с использованием холодного оружия.
Medieval RTS that’s about two brothers traveling across Europe in an attempt to find parts of a powerful artifact – Aaron’s rod. The game will include a campaign, cooperative mode, and competitive multiplayer, offering squad-to-squad combat using melee weapons.
Tempest Rising: Classic RTS With Three Asymmetric Fractions
Newly announced futuristic RTS which claims to be a rebirth of the genre’s classic. Three totally different factions will fight each other in a post-apocalyptic future. Right now they look like just “red and blue”, so we are waiting for details. The game features two story campaigns – looks like that the third fraction will be an antagonist without their own campaign (or maybe in some DLC). In addition, there will be competitive multiplayer with ranked multiplayer matchmaking.
