It really is medieval combat simulation at its finest and it's this strong point that the developers are capitalising on by bringing the multiplayer expansion to market and enabling mammoth medieval massacres.Taleworlds Entertainment's medieval role-playing game Mount & Blade: Warband is making the move from Windows PC to Android devices with Nvidia's Tegra 4 processor, the developer announced. What stands out most about the game though is the physics-based combat system, which means that if you’re galloping alongside an unsuspecting foe on a horse then your speed and trajectory will have an effect on how hard your swing connects with your prey. It’s up to you to get in amongst the fun. Events unfold in the game world wherever you are and whatever you doing.Īs we said in out original Mount & Blade review, “ battles are fought, alliances are formed, caravans trade and raiders raid”.
You get plonked in the middle of a world map to explore at your whim, and you can do precisely that. Some might say it's even a bit too in-depth but nobody ever claimed this was a game suitable for mass audiences it requires specific tastes. You can choose your stats to suit your play style in just about every area. Mount & Blade, along with the Warband expansion, is an RPG in the true old-school sense. Through the magic of computer games, you too can have a virtual beard! For these reasons, the story is entirely open-ended and pretty much non-existent, but in no bad way. You can become an errand-running goody-two-clops and do quests for peasants, working your way up the ladder to be the vassal of a king, or just go around pwning lowly villagers and stealing their lootz. There’s a whole map around which to gallop on your trusty stallion and loads of quests to keep you occupied. Set in the medieval realm of Calradia, Mount & Blade sees you start off as a lowly horse-mounted ruffian with nought but a handful of tin discs and a Hessian sack to call your own. It’s a damned fine game.įor those of you that haven’t played the original Mount & Blade, it’s a period sandbox RPG made by a Russian developer called Taleworlds. If you did, then congratulations on a fine purchase. Many of you might have picked up the title in the recent Steam sale which saw it drop 85 percent to just £3.99.
Enter Mount & Blade: Warband, the multiplayer expansion to the original Mount & Blade which has been on Steam for some time now.
