Frontier and Games Workshop Announce RTS Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Realms of Ruin

Frontier Developments and Games Workshop today announced real-time strategy Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Realms of Ruin; Set in the vast fantasy universe of Age of Sigmar, the game will see us command four different factions in dynamic battles both in the single player campaign and in the 1v1 and 2v2 online multiplayer modes with cross-play support.

Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Realms of Ruin has been designed specifically for console playersConsole players through the new DirectStep control system, an innovative new interface for real-time strategy that allows you to have tactical immediacy in the heat of battle. Using analog sticks and the push of a few buttons, players can quickly scroll through their teams, issue orders and attack the enemy. This system aims to offer console users the flexibility and responsiveness of mouse and keyboard commands.

With a wide range of mission types and modes, no two battles will be the same in Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Realms of Ruin . With four playable factions, completely distinct from each other from a visual and strategic point of view, players will rally their armies, unleashing powerful units to turn the tide of war in their favor. From fast-moving steering wheels to heavier monsters, from mystical wizards to powerful heroes, everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. Players will battle on Arcane Conduits to gather resources, upgrade and specialize their forces through tech trees, and control the battle on multiple fronts to achieve victory.

Authenticity is at the heart of Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Realms of Ruin. Each unit is precisely modeled based on their tabletop counterparts, with world-class animation and cutting-edge graphical fidelity giving players a dramatic and exciting insight into the Age of Sigmar universe. Ghur itself comes to life with extraordinarily detailed and varied maps, full of wild and living foliage and environmental obstacles that will shape players' strategies.

The developers also inform us that there are two open multiplayer betas of the game, the dates of which will be revealed soon. It is already possible to register our interest on www.aosrealmsofruin.com.

We leave you to the launch trailer and a set of images.
