After nearly two years of development, turn-based strategy RPG Legends of Eisenwald is almost ready to strap on its full plate armour and amble out of Steam Early Access; the game will release in full on July 2.
Inspired by titles like Kings Bounty and Disciples 2, Legends of Eisenwald takes place in a low fantasy setting with a whiff of Ice and Fire about it. There are supernatural elements, but they're firmly relegated to the second tier, while knights on horseback and pious, baldy monks take the spotlight.
“Thank you for your patience as development took way longer than we expected - we did not anticipate being so long in Early Access,” admits developer Aterdux. “But we are incredibly happy to bring the game to completion. Please accept our deepest apologies for this tremendous delay but we hope you will enjoy the game and you will get the great experience you were hoping for when you bought our game and supported us.”
It certainly has been a long while coming for Eisenwald. The game debuted on Early Access in October 2013. In total, the game's been in development for a total of five and a half years. In fact, I'd completely forgotten about it until the press release for this announcement came through.
Legends of Eisenwald is currently available on Steam Early Access for $19.99.
