Dutch RPG studio Logic Artists have released their latest game, Expeditions: Viking.
The game is naturally a Norse-themed RPG that has some basis on historical events, and is a successor to the 2013-released Expeditions: Conquistador. It’s now available for PC via Steam and GOG. Featured above, you can view the game’s launch trailer.
Here’s a rundown on the game, via Logic Artists:
As the newly appointed chieftain of a modest Viking clan, you’ll have a village of your very own. But to carve your name into the runestones of history you’ll need great strength, and great wealth to grow your village’s prosperity and renown. There is little left to be gained from the Norse lands and so you must set your sights on the the seas to the West, where tales speak of a great island filled with treasure ready for the taking.
Seek your fortune
Your trusted huscarls will follow you to Valhalla if that be the order of the day, but you’ll need more than loyalty to leave a legacy that will be remembered for a thousand years. Now assemble a worthy band of warriors, build a ship, and seek your wealth and glory across the sea. Britannia awaits in Logic Artists’ Expeditions: Viking.
