Worlds collide in Armies of Exigo, a fantasy RTS where the boundaries of the
battlefield are broken and war is waged both above and below the ground. This
game takes strategy to new depths as elves, beasts, knights, and creatures of
the darkness are locked in an epic battle for survival. In the world of
Exigo, where peace and prosperity have reigned for years, the empires of man and
beast faces their greatest threat yet. A sinister force known as The Fallen has
awaken to strike where the inhabitants of this world least expect - from
underground.
Users will take control of massive armies, wage wars in the forests and river
valleys of the surface, then descend into the caverns and catacombs of the
underworld to face off against the dark evil. Armies on all sides will
have the ability to delve deep underground to travel unseen by foes or borrow up
to the surface to unleash powerful attacks on unsuspecting enemies. The gamer
must devise never before deployed strategies for combat and defense as attacks
can come from all directions.
Conquer as the heavily fortified Empire and control an army of knights, dwarves,
elves and gnomes. Ravage the plains with the nomadic Beasts, leading tribes of
ogres, trolls and other fantastic creatures. Emerge from deep to consume the
world of light with The Fallen – a powerful force of dark elves, fallen
warriors, swarming insects and other horrific creatures of the dark.
Engage in an epic three-part single player campaign and save the world of Exigo
from the evil that threatens to plunge the world into darkness. Or go online for
massive multiplayer skirmishes with up to eight players striving to conquer the
surface and underworld. Success can only be achieved through a balance of
military might and strategic alliances.
Control any of three different armies:
The Empire (knights, wizards, elves), The Beast (ogres, trolls,
lizardmen), and The Fallen (dark elves, fallen knights and
creatures of the deep).
Wage war on two fronts simultaneously –
above and below the surface – with a unique dual layered map
system.
Stunning 3D visuals bring the characters
and environments to life.
Immerse yourself in a fully interactive
world: Blow up bridges, create avalanches to take out your
enemies, cause subterranean lava flows to erupt aboveground, and
dig tunnels from the surface into the caverns below.
Engage the enemy with an army of up to
200 units for massive real time battles.
Change the landscape of both the surface
and underground by deploying units, such as Miners, and casting
spells, such as Earthquake and Volcano.
Single-player includes a three part
campaign and skirmish mode to battle computer-controlled players.
Go online and play in one of four
multiplayer modes: Melee, King of the Hill, Mission, and Free-for-all.
