Champions of Anteria for PC is an another production from Ubisoft, created on the basis of The Settlers: Kingdoms of Anteria. The title was announced in the middle of 2014, but it hasn’t answered to the gamers’ tastes, therefore it was withdrawn in order to be thoroughly remade, which eventually resulted in the described project. The same developer is responsible for the game – German studio Blue Byte, known for The Settlers series and Battle Isle.

Mechanics

Champions of Anteria is a strategic RPG game, in which we fight for the dominion of Anteria, clashing with the Dune Tribe, Greybeards, and Broken Crown. The title allows to control a team made up from three heroes. Each of them represents one of the five warring elements, and has his own range of skills, which we choose before a mission (from a pool of twelve abilities, during the proper game we use only four). The mechanics of fighting are similar to the hack-and-slash Torchlight, combined with World of Warcraft and Divinity: Original Sin. So we are looking at a colorful and fast slasher with multistage boss skirmishes and a system of active pause, which allows us to rethink our next moves.
