Age of Wonders – Planetfall – Invasions : Lézards, vous avez dit lézards !?

Oui ! Préparez-vous, la tension va bientôt monter d’un cran dans Planetfall, avec l’arrivée en masse des Shakarn. D’impitoyables lézards de l’espace dont le sens de l’humour semble inversement proportionnel à leur capacité de leurrer l’ennemi, avant de l’éliminer impitoyablement, de sang froid pourrait-on presque dire. Comme ce trailer l’évoque sans ambiguïté.

Au programme de ce futur DLC, une faction jouable supplémentaire, des mondes agrandis, des variations de style de jeu, ou encore aussi une autre faction non-jouable cette fois, les Therians, des individus adeptes de cocktails génétiques catalysant leur évolution avec celle des animaux. Voilà qui pourrait être amusant.

Paradox Reveals Invasions, the Newest Expansion for Age of Wonders: Planetfall

A Playable Race of Deceptive and Merciless Lizardmen, the Shakarn, Invade Planetfall on May 26 Along with Several Game-Changing Features

STOCKHOLM – APRIL 16, 2020 – Paradox Interactive and Triumph Studios today announced Invasions, the next expansion to the hit 4X strategy game Age of Wonders: Planetfall. Introducing a brand new playable faction, expanded worlds, unique and formidable challenges, and alternate playstyles, this colossal expansion brings the chaos of the void to Planetfall. Invasions will launch on May 26 for PC, PlayStation®4, and Xbox One.

Invasions puts players at the forefront of tactical conquest and apocalyptic thrill in the most expansive addition to Age of Wonders: Planetfall yet. Planetfall initially stations players among shattered military factions on an untamed planet. In Invasions, players switch roles into the conqueror’s chair and deploy as the Shakarn, a race of vicious lizardmen ready to deceive, disrupt, and destroy everything in their path to universal domination. Invasions also introduces the Therians, a mysterious faction of anthropomorphic NPCs who combined their DNA with that of animals to catalyze their evolution. Diplomacy and dispute resolution are twice as delicate with two new factions in play.

Planetfall’s world is bigger and better than ever before. Two entirely new campaign maps have been introduced, as well as a juggernaut-style game mode where players team up to challenge a single player with a vast empire on a conquered world. Invasions also brings a host of unpredictable environmental events to the game, with everything from pirate invasions to superstorms to solar flares. Finally, players face the ultimate late-game challenge as the enigmatic Voidbringers use trans-dimensional warfare to rain down legions of enthralled soldiers across their empires. When the Invasions arrive, Planetfall will never be the same.
