Amplitude Studios is well known for PC 4X strategy titles, like the Endless Space and Endless Legend franchises. Now, they’re trying their hand at a strategy experience rooted in reality, as players come from small nomadic tribes to form societies on the world stage.

One of the unique elements in the game is culture selection through the ages – as you progress, your cultural choices carry over to create one unique nation from many possibilities. You can mix and match cultures like Roman, Egyptian, Viking, German, and many more, with 60 choices to pick from. You can create an economic powerhouse, take over the world with military might, or chase the fame monster to become a legend in your own time. Check out the trailer below!
