Firefly Studios has revealed that it would be debuting brand-new gameplay footage of its upcoming real-time strategy game Stronghold Crusader 2 at GamesCom 2013. The press will also be given access to a new updated build of the game as well.
The chief updates since E3 2013 revolve around updated AI, as well as ”command powers, new unit abilities and dynamic events such as the Tornado, which tears away at castle walls stone by stone in real time, sucking in any archers unlucky enough to be stationed on top. Also on show will be the game’s co-op mode and an assortment of units completely new to the Stronghold series.”
There will also be new screenshots of the Locust Swarm and the Trebuchet, as well as skirmishing between the players and AI.
Stronghold Crusader 2 is due to be released in early 2014, with partial crowdfunding through Gambitious. Players can check out the game at its official site here.
