PARIS - Jan. 22, 2013 - Cyanide Studio returns
with two new games set in Rackham’s medieval-fantasy
universe:
Dogs of War Online, a free-to-play arena-based strategy
game, and
Aarklash: Legacy, a tactical adventure game. Inspired by
Confrontation, both are set for release in Q2 2013.
Aarklash: Legacy puts players in command of a group of
mercenaries on a perilous mission! Intense fighting awaits the
player, who will be tasked with finding the most effective
strategies using the pause system. Though combat is at the heart of
the game, players will also have to explore uncharted areas and
develop tactics in the midst of a storyline full of twists and
turns.
Cyanide today reveals the first screenshots of
Aarklash: Legacy with an overview of Acheron and Behemoth,
two regions in the world of Aarklash that will be explored as the
adventure unfolds. The heroes of the story are also shown, along
with some of the creatures they will face in these hostile
lands!
Aarklash: Legacy promises to be an epic quest with
numerous battles. The heroes Nella, Denzil, Vendaroo, and their
partners are sure to be back with more info in the coming
months!
