Star Drifters have launched The Forgotten Passage DLC and free content to celebrate 4X/RTS hybrid Driftland: The Magic Revival’s third anniversary.
Nomads of Driftland: The Forgotten Passage is a DLC scenario pack for the Nomads spin-off mode in the base game. In the Nomads mode, players control a roaming warband like in a more traditional RTS, and don’t build bases and settlements like they would in other modes. This new DLC pack features 10 scenarios for $4.99 USD.
You can find the reveal trailer below.
You can find the rundown on the DLC (via Steam) below:
Nomads: The Forgotten Passage is the scenario pack for Nomads of Driftland.
Nomads of Driftland is an RTS game initially created as an add-on to Driftland: The Magic Revival. Since it is significantly different from the base game, we decided to release it as a standalone expansion and make it available for free.
Base game – Driftland: The Magic Revival is a unique fusion of RTS, 4X strategy, and Sim genres in a fantasy world made up of the shattered planet. The player takes on the role of a powerful mage-ruler capable of moving and reshaping parts of the planet. Both game mechanics and history are based on an innovative concept of dynamic topography and issuing orders to individuals with free will.
Nomads do not have a ruler and do not carry out orders like other races in the base game. Units are managed directly, like in classic RTS games. New unit types/classes affect strategy on the battlefield.
Includes ten new scenarios:
- The Long-awaited ally
- The sources
- Dwarven solidarity
- Gold rush
- Forsaken Wastes
- Large-scale encounter
- Ancient knowledge
- From ashes to bones
- Path clearing
- Forgotten passage
In terms of free content, Driftland: The Magic Revival has received a map editor with Steam Workshop integration, a minimap, Steam trading cards, and various tweaks and improvements to the Nomads mode. You can read more about the update here, and find an overview of the map editor in action below.
Driftland: The Magic Revival is available on Windows PC, and Mac (both via GOG, and Steam).
