At PDXCON 2018, Paradox Interactive announced Age Of Wonders: Planetfall. This is a new entry for the turn-based 4X series from developers Triumph Studios. This is the first game Triumph is making after being bought by Paradox and will take the franchise out of the usual fantasy setting and into sci-fi.
Despite the change in setting, expect the same flavour of gameplay the series has been known for to return. From the turn-based combat system to its in-depth empire building mechanics as well as multiple victory paths- a staple of 4X in general- will be there.
Here’s the announcement trailer, teasing just a tiny bit of in-game footage.
Age Of Wonders: Planetfall will be out sometime in 2019.
