Hatred Developer Reveals Promising New Tactical Medieval RTS “Ancestors Legacy”

Destructive Creations, the Polish developer behind the ultra-violent and controversial shooter Hatred, have announced their next game – and it’s quite the departure from a sociopathic mass-murder simulator.

The new game is a tactical real-time strategy game set in historical medieval Europe, appropriately titled Ancestors Legacy. Featured above, you can view the first trailer for the game.

Here’s the first screenshots for the game:


Here’s a rundown on the game:


Take command of your army as you storm through medieval Europe in an extensive series of campaigns. Choosing one of the four available nations – Viking, Anglo-Saxon, German, Slav – you will be tasked with more than just conquering, raiding and pillaging enemy camps, villages and towns. Only by utilizing the full range of available tactical options, taking strategic advantage of the environment, and managing your temporary bases and settlements, will you emerge victorious.

Ancestors Legacy is a historically accurate real-time strategy game influenced by historical events in the Middle Ages. The game combines resource management and base building with large-scale, squad-based battles across vast battlefields, all rendered in great detail thanks to the Unreal Engine 4 tech. Experience medieval bloodshed like never before, thanks to the cinematic action camera that puts you right in the middle of the battle at the press of a button.

Key Features:

  • 4 playable nations in an extensive single player campaign inspired by historical events
  • Advanced tactical options combining the use of terrain, experience and morale
  • Cinematic battle camera view puts you right in the center of the action
  • Outstanding visual fidelity powered by Unreal Engine 4
  • Intense multiplayer battles
  • Streamlined resource management and village construction
  • Precise controls with native gamepad support

A release window for Ancestors Legacy is set for sometime in 2018 – for now you can find the game’s Steam page here.
