Take up arms to save the world in The Valiant
THQ Nordic and developer Kite Games have announced The Valiant, an all-new action RTS that will tell the tale of Theoderich von Akenburg, who seeks to stop a former friend from destroying the world.
The Valiant is an action-RTS with RPG elements, that is designed to bring a fresh experience to players. Focused on more tactical combat with smaller forces, players encounter a sweeping, story-driven campaign where each mission’s challenge is unique. Decisions both on and off the battlefield count, as players will want to select their forces carefully for each mission (no base building here!), as well as decide the skills and equipment given to each hero.
With three unique skill trees per hero, there are plenty of options to explore when finding the playstyle that fits best, and Valiant’s fast-paced, melee-centric combat will give new challenges to even the most veteran RTS player
The Valiant also offers two different multiplayer modes: competitive and cooperative. While the game's campaign is designed as a single-player experience, 3 friends can enjoy the Last Man Standing mode together and hold their ground against waves of enemies, including mini-bosses and bosses. Success will be rewarded with experience to level up the selected hero, granting new skills and better stats for future challenges.
The PVP mode offers 1v1 or 2v2 scenarios that consist of swift and thrilling clashes as players capture control points and build up their forces. As players earn more victories, they’ll be able to unlock a wide range of visual customisation that can be leveraged throughout the game experience.
There is no set release window for the game yet, but it is set to release on PC via Steam, GOG and Epic Game Store
