Having just about sold over 1 million copies of Age of Wonders, the 1997 team of Triumph Studios have been absorbed into Paradox Interactive in a new business deal.
It takes a large group effort to patch and balance a strategy title like Age of Wonders III, and after a collective amount of 10s of millions of hours, the v1.705 patch is primed and ready to go.
Age of Wonders 3 was an "impressive return" for the series when it launched back on 31st March, 2014, adding more creativity into the 4X strategy mold with strategic battles and the challenge of a new hostile world. The two expansion packs - Eternal Lords and Golden Realms – helped add to a game that wasn't short of content. That content is no doubt what helped move Age of Wonders 3 into sales of over 500k copies, with the expansion packs close to that number as well, as revealed by Triumph Studios.
Triumph Studios has revealed that it's working on adding modding support to its excellent fantasy 4X game Age of Wonders 3. To demonstrate this new feature, the team has also released a picture of – and I quote – a “cadaver wielding necromancer’s scythe riding a nightmare horse”. Which is everything I've ever wanted and more, all in one sentence. Modding tools will arrive in the next patch, when Triumph is finished polishing bug-fixing.
Triumph Studios has released a bumper, 28-minute let's play video for Age of Wonders 3: Eternal Lords, its upcoming fantasy 4X expansion. Playing as the new Tigran race, our narrator makes use of some of the less aggressive options introduced in the expansion, taking the 'Peacekeeper' specialisation and aiming for a (mostly) non-violent victory.
Triumph Studios are working on a new expansion pack for Age of Wonders III called 'Eternal Lords', which will be released alongside the Linux and Mac ports of the game on 14th April, 2015. Eternal Lords is the second major expansion pack to be released for Age of Wonders III. With the introduction of the Tigran and Frostling races and the new Necromancer class, players must adapt to a world on the brink of cataclysmic change. New mechanics such as the Race Governance system, which allows players to tailor the features of each race in their empire to meet their strategic needs, add new layers of depth to empire development and diplomacy.
Triumph Studios has announced a public Steam Beta release for the upcoming Age of Wonders III Update 1.5, which should be here "in a couple of weeks." It officially launches as a free update next to the upcoming expansion. The patch includes diplomatic AI profiles, overhauled diplomacy, and the return of PBEM multiplayer for that old school feel.
Halfling-heavy Age of Wonders 3 DLC pack Golden Realms has only just hit the shelves, but developer Triumph Studios is already planning the contents of its next expansion. A developer post on the game's website reveals the addition of the Necromancer class, which suggests that undead, who were missing from the core game, will be making a reappearance.
A collection of tweets, Facebook posts and job ads suggests that turn-based strategy developer Triumph Studios may well have Age of Wonders 3 in the works. "Won't be Overlord". Triumph also created the Overlord franchise where we play an evil ruler with minions. Composer Michiel van den Bos promises "some interesting news soon" from the studio.
Triumph Studios, the development team behind the Overlord and Age of Wonders series, announced today that it's developing Age of Wonders 3 for the PC. Age of Wonders III sees a modern reimagining of the series, where players join a clash of kings, queens and dark lords for the spoils of an ancient paradise.
Although we originally thought Epic Games would be publishing Age of Wonders 3 for Triumph Studios, it actually turns out that the game doesn't have a publisher at all and Minecraft creator Notch, real name Markus Persson, is funding it. Distribution and co-publishing deals haven't been ruled out, but because Notch is such a big fan of the franchise and doesn't have much time to work on publishing it, he's agreed to help fund it anyway.
Triumph Studios' Lennart Sas assures us that the newly announced Age of Wonders III "absolutely stays true to its turn-based roots," fantasy setting, empire building and role playing elements. They have gotten "a lot of the original team together" to recapture the 'more magical atmosphere' of the first game. Their "biggest change" is more focus on leader characters.
Overlord's Triumph Studios had slated Age of Wonders 3 for Fall this year but has decided it would be best pushed into 2014 to give them more time to tackle all the features and content for the turn-based strategy. It's the "largest game in the series" and time for extra polish couldn't be passed up. Some gameplay for Age of Wonders 3 was at GDC 2013. Minecraft's Notch is funding the game.
