Like the first Kingmakers Illustrated in the gameplay trailer, an army of heavily armored medieval soldiers are no match for a man from the future armed with a shotgun, grenade launcher and sniper rifle. The match becomes even more lopsided when you can call in an attack helicopter to snipe an entire battalion in red fog.
A new trailer for Kingmakers answers an equally important question: who would win: a huge medieval castle or an Abrams tank? Yes, the tank wins in all situations, whether it’s Tudor architecture or a company of knights. It looks like the last one is just a hamburger stuck in the steps of that tank. Horrible things. There will also be a lot of virtual horse death in this game, which I have extremely mixed feelings about.
What Kingmakers‘ The latest trailer is actually intended to illustrate how well it handles the destruction of buildings, from simple cottages and taverns to towering stone castles. Kingmakers Developer Redemption Road promises that these dynamic collapses and explosions will all happen in real time, with realistic physics, making the shooter-medieval-military-strategy simulation fun to watch.
Kingmakers will release on Windows PC via Steam sometime later this year.
