Field of Glory – Kingdoms : screenshots et gameplay

Slitherine diffuse quatre nouvelles captures d’écrans pour la future suite, en quelque sorte, de la déclinaison à l’échelle stratégique de la série Field of Glory. Déclinaison que l’on avait vu en 2019 avec un sympathique premier volet sur la période de l’Antiquité, Field of Glory – Empires.

Ce nouveau jeu qui comme cela avait été évoqué il y a longtemps se focalisera sur la période médiévale se veut plus ambitieux et abouti que le précédent, et en conséquence son développement va prendre plus de temps. La sortie initialement envisagée cette année étant désormais prévue on ne sait quand l’an prochain.

Vous trouverez également sur la chaîne Twitch de Slitherine une longue présentation diffusée hier dans laquelle entre autres les nouvelles fonctionnalités du gameplay ont été montrées.
